Abstract: Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant are provided. An example process for performing a task includes, at an electronic device having one or more processors and memory, determining whether a shortcut criteria is met and in accordance with a determination that the shortcut criteria is met: displaying a first affordance corresponding to a first task of a shortcut over a user interface, determining whether the first task can be completed without displaying an application interface corresponding to the first task, in accordance with a determination that the first task can be completed without displaying the application interface, performing the first task while displaying the first affordance, and in accordance with a determination that the first task cannot be completed without displaying the application interface, displaying the application interface, and completing the first task using the application interface.

Abstract: A computerized method for automatically generating display content includes receiving a uniform resource locator, wherein the uniform resource locator specifies a landing resource and extracting visual information from the landing resource, wherein the visual information defines one or more images, texts, and colors displayed on the landing resource. The method further includes selecting one or more images, one or more text snippets, and one or more colors based on the visual information extracted from the landing resource, generating a layout for a content item based on one or more of the selected images or selected text snippets, and assembling the content item by applying the selected images, the selected text snippets, and the selected colors to the generated layout.

Abstract: A system and a computer-implemented method for automatically determining the visual appeal of online content are provided. The method includes storing a plurality of software implemented algorithms in the memory device, receiving one or more generated items of online content, determining graphics and textual content parameters of the received items of online content, comparing the determined parameters to the set of desired parameters, ranking the items of online content based on the comparisons, and outputting the ranked items of online content. Each algorithm includes one or more rules capable of recognizing graphic content parameters, recognizing textual content parameters, and relating the graphic content parameters and the textual content parameters to a set of desired parameters accessible to the rules.
