  • Patent number: 11875087
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to generating outputs using a digital personal assistant computing control platform and machine learning. A computing platform may receive, from a digital personal assistant computing device, a first voice command input. The computing platform may then determine, via machine learning algorithms, an identifier output indicating a user associated with the first voice command input and a location output indicating a geographic location associated with the user. The computing platform may determine, via a stored calendar, an availability output indicating availability associated with the user. Based on the identifier output, the location output, and the availability output, a charitable opportunity output indicating a charitable opportunity may be determined by the computing platform and may be transmitted to a computing device associated with the charitable opportunity.

  • Patent number: 11861724
    Abstract: A driving accident simulation, having a virtual- or augmented-reality user interface, may be used to inform a driver of the driver's potential liability under different insurance options. The simulation may determine damages caused by the simulated accident, and identify multiple insurance options and the resulting user liability under each option. The simulation may also be used to assess an insurance adjuster's ability to estimate damages from an accident, by receiving the adjuster's estimate and comparing it to the simulation's own estimate of damages. In some embodiments, the simulation may present a driver with a simulated view from a point of view of another party to the simulated accident.
