Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to support the sustainable creation of conversation content. My approach is from the viewpoint of conversational records as materials for new conversations. I introduce the concepts of conversation quanta and quantization spiral, the latter being a feasible framework for constructing conversational content. A conversation quantum is a reusable conversation material that is applicable to conversational systems. I survey the systems using conversation quanta and their evaluations.
