Chatbot is a program that utilizes natural language understanding and processing technology to have a human-like conversation. Nowadays chatbots are capable to interact with users in world’s majority languages. Unfortunately, bots that interact with Kurdish users are rare. This paper is an attempt to bridge the gap between chatbots and Kurdish users. This paper tries to implement a free open source platform (pandorabots) to build a Kurdish chatbot. I present a number of challenges for Kurdish chatbot at the last section of this work.
