Finding and Sorting Names
The AI reads a sentence and picks out the important words. Those are names, places, times and numbers.
You teach the computer to spot names. It also finds places, dates and other important details in a sentence.
How the AI finds the important words
- 1
Find names
The AI reads through the text. It looks for words that could be a name or a place.
- 2
Sort into drawers
It puts every find into a drawer. For example person, company, place or date.
- 3
Watch the words nearby
Some words fit into more than one drawer. Then the AI looks at the words around them.

How it is used
Search engines need this. Voice assistants need it too. So do programs that pull details out of texts.
Soon you will see how an AI finds names in a text and sorts them.
Guess first, then experiment
"Paris is driving to Berlin." Is Paris a place here?
