Abstract: A system for automatic tilting of an operator cabin of a work machine includes a first sensor that generates a first signal indicative of a first pitch angle of a frame structure relative to a non-inclined surface. The system also includes a tilting mechanism to tilt the operator cabin relative to the frame structure. The system further includes a controller that receives the first signal indicative of the first pitch angle. The controller determines a second pitch angle based on the first pitch angle.

The second pitch angle is opposite in direction to the first pitch angle. Further, based on a tilting of the operator cabin, a plane defined by the operator cabin is substantially parallel to the non-inclined surface.

Abstract: Systems and methods for using a generative artificial intelligence (AI) model to generate a suggested draft reply to a selected message. A message generation system and method are described that use inferred context to improve the suggested draft reply message for the user. Various message data and additional context are obtained and included in a prompt provided to the AI model to improve suggested content. In some examples, the message data and additional context include a message thread history and previously sent messages, profile information of the sender and recipient(s) of the selected message, known relationship information between the sender and the user, etc. For instance, the user's preferred communication style and talking points can be inferred based on the profile data, relationship data, and the user's past communications with similar participants and used to tailor the suggested draft reply to the user.

Abstract: Improved techniques for re-localizing Internet-of-Things (IOT) devices are disclosed herein. Sensor data digitally representing one or more condition(s) monitored by an IOT device is received. In response, a sensor readings map is accessed, where this map is associated with the IOT device. The map also digitally represents the IOT device's environment and includes data representative of a location of the IOT device within the environment. The map also includes data representative of the conditions monitored by the IOT device. Additionally, the map is updated by attaching the sensor data to the map. In some cases, a coverage map can also be computed. Both the sensors readings map and the coverage map can be automatically updated in response to the IOT device being re-localized.

Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include systems for generating personalized avatar reactions during live video broadcasts.
