Chatbots! Chatbots everywhere! On today’s episode of The New Stack Makers podcast, we visited the Botness Enterprise chatbot conference, held in Austin, Texas last month, to speak with Steven Goldsmith, general manager of Atlassian’s HipChat. Chatbots need messaging platforms upon which to work, and one of the most widely used messaging platforms for developers is HipChat. So we wanted to find out more about what Atlassian is seeing in terms of chatbot adoption, and how it helps developers build their own chatbots.
