    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods relating to conversational system user experience. In an example, a conversational system may use one or more sensors of a user device to affect the topic or direction of a conversation or to identify a new conversation topic. The conversational system may also receive input from a user, wherein a GUI may enable the user to specify or alter semantic information used during the conversation. The GUI may comprise one or more skeuomorphic elements designed to provide a familiar or intuitive way for the user to interact with the conversational system. The GUI may also be used to disambiguate messages or convey emotion or sentiment to the user. In another example, haptic or audio feedback may be provided alongside a message to convey emotion to the user during the conversation.

    Abstract: Representative embodiments disclose mechanisms for discovering, synthesizing, presenting and interacting with multiple chat bots. A broker system can interact with a user and receive a query which is passed to a search engine. The search results are evaluated for bots provided by domains. The query can be submitted to the discovered bots. For domains that do not provide a bot, a bot can be synthesized if desired and the query submitted to the synthesized bots. Answers from the bots are retrieved. Answer are directly presented for bots that are directly surfaced to the user in the search results page. Answers can be fused for bots that are not directly surfaced to the user and presented via a broker bot. Answers from the one bot can be fed to other bots so that the bots can participate in a group chat between bots and the user.
