Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field of artificial intelligence (AI) that focuses on the interaction between computers and humans using natural language. The goal of NLP is to enable computers to understand, interpret, and generate human language in a way that is both meaningful and contextually relevant. NLP involves a combination of computer science, linguistics, and machine learning.
