What is Natural Language Processing (NLP)?
Natural Language Processing is a branch of artificial intelligence that focuses on the interaction between computers and human language. NLP enables machines to understand, interpret, and generate human language in meaningful ways.
Applications of NLP include chatbots, sentiment analysis, machine translation, question-answering systems, and speech recognition. With the rise of large language models like ChatGPT, NLP skills are more valuable than ever in 2026.
Essential NLP Skills for Career Success
