  • Publication number: 20250348331
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein relate to the use of generative artificial intelligence to facilitate rendering of user interface elements in a user interface associated with a digital assistant. A backend response is automatically generated in response to user input provided via the user interface associated with the digital assistant. Prompt data is generated. The prompt data includes an instruction to generate an intermediate representation of an output data structure supported by the digital assistant. The prompt data is provided to a generative machine learning model to obtain the intermediate representation. The intermediate representation is processed to obtain the output data structure. One or more user interface elements are rendered based on the output data structure. The one or more user interface elements present the response data via the user interface associated with the digital assistant.

  • Publication number: 20250321768
    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a digital assistant that utilizes generative artificial intelligence. Prompt data provided to a generative machine learning model includes user input and function data. The function data can include dependency data that identifies at least one function dependency. A first function is invoked based on a first response from the generative machine learning model to obtain first output data. After updating the prompt data to include the first output data and receiving a second response from the generative machine learning model, a second function is invoked to obtain second output data. The digital assistant can maintain model-accessible data and non-model-accessible data for a digital conversation. Automated validation can be performed on parameter values of the first function or the second function. Parameter values may be explicitly confirmed by the digital assistant via a user-confirmation operation before invoking the first function or the second function.

  • Patent number: 7957168
    Abstract: An inverter (1) for feeding electric power into a utility grid (7) or into a load is described. The inverter (1) contains two direct voltage inputs (2, 3), one first intermediate circuit (8) connected thereto and comprising two series connected capacitors (C1, C2) that are connected together at a ground terminal (14), two alternating voltage outputs (5, 6) of which one at least is provided with a grid choke (L1) and one bridge section (10). In accordance with the invention, a second intermediate circuit (9) that is devised at least for selectively boosting the direct voltage and is intended for supplying the bridge section (10) with positive and negative voltage is interposed between the first intermediate circuit (8) and the bridge section (10).
