Steve Klabnik: WASM + Rust + Serverless

Rust

• Fast and Memory safe language
• Hard to learn but better programming
• Close tie with WebAssembly

WASM

• Originated as asm.js - a fast subset of JS
• Developped into an universal binary runnable on web browser and elsewhere
• WASI the runtime interface for other languages (see Lin Clark’s talk)

Serverless

• With Rust and WASM, any app can run anywhere

Rasa NLU Lessons

1. Train INTENT and MESSAGE in single NN to be language agnostic (any lang tokenizable)
2. Out-of-data and Fallback policies to improve service
3. Form collection required from user before Decision
4. Feedback loop of system itself logging to improve the system (i.e. logging user-bot conversation to extract more labels)
