Title: "Twizz: The Multimodal Conversational Wizard of Complex Manual Tasks"
Abstract: "Conversational agents have become an integral part of our daily routines, aiding humans in various tasks. Helping humans in real-world manual tasks is a complex and challenging paradigm, where it is necessary to leverage multiple information sources, provide several multimodal stimuli, and be able to correctly ground the conversation in a helpful and robust manner. In this talk, I will describe Twizz, a conversational AI assistant that is helpful, knowledgeable, and engaging, and designed to guide users towards the successful completion of complex manual tasks."
