Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media for providing predicted task-actions for tasks from a plurality of task applications associated with a task management system. In operation, a task associated with a task application is accessed at a task-action prediction engine. An intent of the task is determined. The intent of the task is determined based on task features and an intent prediction machine learning model that is trained to predict intents associated with natural language text. Based on the intent of the task, a predicted task-action is selected based on a task-action computation model that is associated with predefined task-actions and predefined intent-task-categories. The predicted task-action can be communicated to a task management client that causes display of the predicted task-action in combination with a predicted task-action interface element associated with executing the predicted task-action.

The physical interaction can generate a movement profile captured by the one or more sensors. The XR device can identify the physical interaction as a particular motion (e.g., one or more taps on the XR device) by applying a machine learning model to the movement profile. In response to identifying the particular motion, the XR device can trigger an action on the XR device (e.g., activating pass-through on the XR device).
