  • Publication number: 20240004916
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that dynamically capture, organize, and utilize digital media clips. For example, in one or more implementations, the disclosed systems can capture and generate digital media clips of content items that include both content metadata of the content items as well as contextual metadata of contextual signals surrounding the content item. Additionally, in some implementations, the disclosed systems analyze contextual metadata to search, retrieve, discover, and organize new and existing digital media clips. Further, in various implementations, the disclosed systems facilitate generating digital media clip libraries as well as the creation of digital media collections, where different types of digital media clips can be combined in a cohesive interactive graphical user interface.

  • Publication number: 20230384916
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for generating, arranging, and providing subgroupings of content items according to content attributes and dynamic facets. For example, the disclosed systems generate dynamic facets reflecting content attributes, where the dynamic facets are selectable interface elements for arranging content items into subgroups. In certain cases, as part of generating a subgrouping of content items, the disclosed systems can identify portions of content items (e.g., segments of a digital video or sections of a digital document) that correspond to a dynamic facet. The disclosed systems can also provide filtering options for creating or refining subgroupings from a content collection by, for example, filtering according to recency criteria such as file type, recency of interaction, collaborative user accounts, or others.

  • Publication number: 20220318039
    Abstract: This document describes techniques for suggesting actions based on machine learning. These techniques determine a task that a user desires to perform, and presents a user interface through which to perform the task. To determine this task, the techniques can analyze content displayed on the user device or analyze contexts of the user and user device. With this determined task, the techniques determine an action that may assist the user in performing the task. This action is further determined to be performable through analysis of functionalities of an application, which may or may not be executing or installed on the user device. With some subset of the application's functionalities determined, the techniques presents the subset of functionalities via the user interface. By so doing, the techniques enable a user to complete a task more easily, quickly, or using fewer computing resources.
