Doing Machine Learning (K Nearest Neighbors) in a Messenger Chatbot

Chatbots are taking over the world. Companies want them, developers are creating them, and more important, people are eager to try them. The use cases and experiences a chatbot can bring seem to be unlimited -- there are bots for managing group purchases, bots for helping people to obtain their immigration visas, and even bots for tracking flights. So, eventually the hype got me and I decided to build my first chatbot. My idea for this chatbot was to see how I could manually train and use a machine learning model through a chat-based interface, while trying several ideas and concepts that could enhance the experience of using a machine learning model in this way.
