Conversations Conference, the only event in Russia dedicated to the technologies of conversational artificial intelligence, will take place on June 27-28 in St. Petersburg. How do developers make money on conversational AI? What are the pros, cons and hidden features of different dialogue platforms and methodologies?

Within two days, Conversations participants and experts from Google, Yandex, MTS, Just AI, Megafon, BRLab, Ozon Travel, DPD, EORA, Aeroclub IT, Ready for Sky will analyze figures, forecasts, fresh case studies and technological trends of conversational AI.

Here's another figure: by 2023, 8 billion voice assistants will be used in the world, Juniper Research predicts , there will be two or three assistants per person, but even with this scenario, the number of active users will reach 3-4 billion. So what content should developers and businesses create to win these users? The participants of Conversations'19 will have two days to deal with the questions that the spoken AI sets for us.
