Amazon has released a dataset of nearly 11,000 conversations between Mechanical Turk workers to advance the development of AI agents that can have engaging conversations with humans. The dataset includes 4.7 million words and the worker’s conversations fall into eight categories, including discussions about fashion, politics, or movies. Amazon provided the workers text from Wikipedia and Washington Post articles to guide the conversations.
