A naughty bot knows Pittsburgh

Intention

I plan to develop a AI bot who can tell the user interesting events nearby. This version is just a test prototype, which can only locate your location at Pittsburgh and can post user nearby activities such as Games, live concerts exhibitions, etc. I can also tell the user details about the events, such as time, address, how to buy tickets, etc.

Process

Step 1: Build a web server using RUBY with Sinatra.

Step2: Connect ruby endpoint with Twilio, an API creating connect with backend data with SMS end.

Step3: Connect Ticket Master API with backend data.

Step4: Naturing language processing to handle user inputs of the sentence.

Step5: Deploy app on Heroku and prototyping.

Step n in the future: Add more user-centered functions to the ruby backend and I planned to use an AI API called Dialogflow to deal with more complicated conversations between human and databases.
