Remember the smell of sand or earth while it is about to rain similarly some people like the smell of machine and like to develop software for it. Some of them unwind the machine and try to rejoin it.
The Machine, Machine learning, NLP, Artificial Intelligence are technical terms for a lay man. But these like peanuts for tech savvy students. Reputed companies look company look for candidates who is a technology freak and can develop their software. Amazon has Alexa, Apple has Siri: These are chat bots or artificial intelligence bots; these are developed by some tech-savvy person.
