Proposed Talks

Human Conversational Services Featured Talk

We don’t speak binary very well, so lets make computers speak our languages.

We have begun to regress towards solutions with easier implementations at the expense of usability to solve difficult design problems in our APIs. Our cutting edge solutions are becoming increasingly user and consumer hostile. Instead of lowering the barrier to entry in software, we are building the walls even higher. It is time for hAPI conversations with our systems.

Using a strong foundation of conversational interaction, we can create generic hypermedia clients. Using generic clients, we can build interfaces while speaking in human terms.
