    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing a digital personal assistant. The digital personal assistant determining that a user has initiated a user experience with it. In response, the digital personal assistant collects information concerning the user's sensibilities about content and a current context in which the digital personal assistant is being used. With that information, the digital personal assistant infers facets of the user's sensibilities and deduces a context of use. With those inferences and that deduction, the digital personal assistant evaluates whether the presentation of responsive content should be modified to better comport with the user's sensibilities and to be more appropriate for the context of use. Additionally, in response to determining a user's need for content, the digital personal assistant can use the inference and deduction to supply suggested content to the user.
