<human>:  What is language processing and how does it work?
<bot>: Language processing is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that helps machines understand, interpret and manipulate natural language. It works by breaking down natural language into smaller components—such as words and phrases—and analyzing them to determine the intent and meaning behind them. From there, it can take action on the natural language, such as providing a response in a conversation or taking an action on a command.
