  This is the application document for the 2019 Amazon Alexa competition. We
give an overall vision of our conversational experience, as well as a sample
conversation that we would like our dialog system to achieve by the end of the
competition. We believe personalization, knowledge, and self-play are important
components towards better chatbots. These are further highlighted by our
detailed system architecture proposal and novelty section. Finally, we describe
how we would ensure an engaging experience, how this research would impact the
field, and related work.
