Conversations Squared #3 Esha Metiary

Conversation designer Esha Metiary talks about why some bots should be prepared to discuss political matters. Can you imagine talking to a branded bot that doesn't want to discuss Black Lives Matter when the brand itself promotes those values? The bot is on the front line between customer and brand, so if the brand has those values, surely the bot should represent those values.
