Talking with machines can be as natural as having conversation from a twitter account that unveils histories from a home census dataset (https://twitter.com/habitantesar ) to a newspaper that answers questions about dollar, weather or traffic (http://www.ambito.com/838436-informate-con-el-bot-de-ambitocom ). Now, we can give a new access to our stories creating bots that opens the conversation with the information that we have in our projects. Join this workshop to see some working examples, understand different types of platforms and get the tools to start your own project. The goal will be for all the participant to have the abilities to create their own bot during the Media Party Hackathon. 40 minutes - Intro: Automating Information Access., Examples all around the world. 60 minutes - Teams : 1 dev + 1 Storyteller. Exercise: Designing automation
