Abstract: Examples provide for automatically provisioning hosts in a cloud environment. A cloud daemon generates a cloud host-state configuration, for a given cloud instance of a host, stored on a cloud metadata service prior to first boot of the given cloud instance of the host. A first boot of a plurality of cloud instances of hosts is performed using a stateless, master boot image lacking host-specific configuration data. On completion of the first boot of a given cloud instance of a host, the cloud host-state configuration is installed on the master boot image to generate a self-configured boot image including host-specific configuration data for the given cloud instance of the host. A second boot is performed on the given cloud instance of the host by executing the self-configured boot image to automatically provision the given cloud instance of the host in the cloud environment.

Abstract: An electronic device receives a first plurality of images of a scene captured by an image sensor of an electronic device, receives an ambient light level proximate to the electronic device, and determines whether the ambient light level is less than a first threshold value. In accordance with a determination that the ambient light level is less than the first threshold value, the electronic device detects motion in the scene based on one or more of the first plurality of images. In accordance with detecting motion in the scene, the electronic device receives a second plurality of images of the scene captured by the image sensor of the electronic device, forms a composite image from two or more of the second plurality of images, and causes the composite image to be presented for display on a user device.

Abstract: A data processing system implements receiving textual content from a first application on a first client device associated with a first user for analysis by a context adaptive writing assistant configured to provide suggestions for improving the textual content, obtaining contextual information indicative of a level of formality of the textual content; and categorizing the textual content as being associated with a first level of formality selected from a plurality of levels of formality. The system is further implements analyzing the textual content to identify one or more suggested improvements to the textual content; selecting a subset of suggested improvements from the one or more suggested improvements to the textual content to the first user based on the first level of formality associated with the textual content; sending the subset of suggested improvements to the first client device; and causing the first client device to display the subset of suggested improvements.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for supporting wireless medium sharing in wireless communications systems, e.g., various 802.11 wireless communications systems, are described. A novel shared transmission type of trigger frame is implemented, which allows a wireless station, acting as a host station, to make available transmission resources, which have been acquired by the wireless station, to one or more guest stations. A shared transmission type of trigger frame, generated and transmitted by the host station communicates information identifying the attributes of a corresponding trigger based (TB) frame, information identifying resources of the TB frame to be used by the host station and information identifying one or more set of shared resources which may be used by guest station(s). The trigger based (TB) frame, corresponding to the transmitted shared transmission type trigger frame, is used by the host station and one or more guest stations to transmit data to an access point.

Abstract: Techniques for personalized digital content generation are described and are implementable to generate digital content based on content that depicts a scene from one or more locations and content that depicts one or more individuals. The described implementations, for instance, enable generation of a personalized photo album for a user depicting the user at the one or more locations. The described implementations further enable generation of an itinerary including personalized digital content. In an example, an input including a location is received. Environment content is generated that depicts a scene of the location. User content is generated that includes a representation of one or more individuals. Personalized content is then generated by incorporating the representation of the one or more individuals into the scene, and the personalized content is output for display. The personalized content is further usable to generate a personalized itinerary for a user.

Further, the vehicle determines an audible output level projected to be sufficient for the recipient to hear the message at the location, responsive to detecting the location and outputs the message through speakers of the vehicle at the determined audible output level.

Abstract: The described system provides a dual-model framework for data retrieval from complex data environments such as webpages on the internet. It combines a traditional similarity model that identifies relevant data from vast amounts of data and a large language model that delves deeper into the relevant data to uncover specifics. The models, in conjunction, provide a method for providing responses to structured queries about an entity. A source investigator receives a request for information about an entity alongside a set of keywords. A source datastore is identified for the entity and a similarity model is applied to the datastore to determine relevancy scores for data within. Data and/or nodes above a relevancy threshold are stored as relevant data. Then, using the large language model, the investigator generates responses to the structured queries based on the relevant data and provides responses to the user system.
