Abstract
Exemplary embodiments relate to methods, mediums, and systems for managing a conversation. In an embodiment, a computer-implemented input interface is provided to receive an input comprising information in natural language. A dialog manager is configured to determine an intent of the input, determine information to fulfill the intent, and identify one or both of information available to the dialog manager or information that is unavailable to the dialog manager. A conversational understanding document documents the intent and the identified information. An output interface forwards the conversational understanding document towards a task completion handler separate and distinct from the dialog manager. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
