Defining natural language processing and its impact on business intelligence

Natural language has already permeated daily life. The most common examples of natural language are technologies like Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant that recognize patterns in speech to infer meaning and serve up an appropriate response. NLP is also the engine powering some of Google's Gmail capabilities. Gmail uses NLP to automatically parse and understand the contents of your email messages and detect things like meeting invitations, package shipment notifications, and reminders. Another common example of NLP in action is web search engines.
