What you will learn

How to build your first AI chatbot with Python and Rasa Open Source

The basics of conversational AI

Description

This course was developed by instructors from Rasa to give developers a solid foundation in the basics of building AI assistants. During this hands-on, project-based course, you'll build an AI assistant that collects a daily log of health data by text message and posts the data to a spreadsheet.

You'll learn how to:

  • Install Rasa Open Source and create a new project.

  • Create and format training data.

  • Collect data from the user with Rasa forms

  • Connect with an external API using Rasa custom actions

  • Connect your assistant to Twilio

  • Keep improving your assistant using conversation driven development principles

Instructor is just reading a script given to them. there is no deep level knowledge being shared on why and how a certain thing work (Recommend Youtube tutorials by Rasa instead). They are also wasting lot of time on unnecessary stuff like dictating each and every word of conversation like it matters to the course (this is not a conversation design course). The section3 video about forms is really incomplete and left me confused on the topic on "Forms"

While the setup is quick and learning approach is good, the code and concepts are not in line with the current version of Rasa anymore.

So far so good. I had known about RASA for long. Now I want to actually use it to build a chatbot. Have to learn fast. But still followed the route of learning gradually

The issue is that the video is related to an old version of Rasa. The syntax of many files changed. This course should be updated.

Nice intro to RASA. Easy to follow and very informative for my feeling. The only downside I think: It is not up to date. I believe the new version of RASA brought some changes to the active server and file system... but I am not entirely sure.

For windows users, I had to search commands separately. Would have been great if it was mentioned in this course too.

It is a good course. I could have given 5 stars however the course is based on a earlier version. I solved the problem of earlier version using https://rasa.com/blog/updating-to-rasa-open-source-2-0/

venv on the current ubuntu is based on python 3.9 and does not work as expected ... I would suggest you move to using conda/miniconda and use conda create -n venv python=3.7 to make life easier for future learners

Leider ist die Ordnerstruktur in der neuesten Version von rasa etwas anders. Statt .md werden auch viele .yml Dateien benutzt.

some videos are quite poorly explained, the author takes for granted concepts that are not obvious ... no one learns well by just copying and pasting

Been following along word for word and have tried 10 times but always get this error rasa.core.processor - Encountered an exception while running action 'health_form'. Bot will continue, but the actions events are lost. Please check the logs of your action server for more information.

There is no access to the code to copy/paste and check errors. The version of the video is different from the version in the pre-defined package that comes with the installation of Rasa.

Esta bien, pero hay una barrera grande que es el idioma, esta en completo inglés y eso supone una barrera de acceso al Framework bastante grande.

Overall a good walkthorugh of RASA but the forms section is based on an older RASA version and would benefit from an update.

The course so far, has been very easy to follow. I hope for those that follow, they update this section to be 2.7.1 compliant.
