  • Patent number: 12288025
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a message that is to be sent electronically to a user include the use of an artificial intelligence or large language model (AI/LLM) service to provide recommendations about how a message could be changed to improve customer engagement with the message. The systems and methods can present an individual generating the message with options for making changes to a draft of the message, and the individual can then select the changes that are to be made to create a final version of the message. In some instances, the systems and methods include analyzing the change recommendations provided by a AI/LLM service to ensure they will actually improve customer engagement and not clash with or impair the original purpose of the message.

  • Patent number: 12254333
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for providing context specific schema files that allow an automated assistant to broker human-to-computer dialogs between a user and an application that is separate from the automated assistant. The context specific schema file can provide the automated assistant with sufficient data to be responsive to user queries without necessarily communicating with a remote device, such as a server. Multiple different context specific schema files can be made available to the automated assistant according to a context in which a user is interacting with the automated assistant. In this way, latency otherwise exhibited by the automated assistant can be mitigated by providing the automated assistant with the information needed to respond to a user without continually retrieving the information over a network.
