Summary


In this chapter, we created a LUIS application. You learned how to create language-understanding models, which can recognize entities in sentences. You learned how to understand the user's intent and how we can trigger actions from this. An important step was to see how to improve the model in various ways.

In the next chapter, we will utilize what you have learned here, using LUIS with speech APIs, giving us the ability to speak to our application.
