  • Publication number: 20250110985
    Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are able to provide robust results based on specified formatting and organization. Traditionally, however, users must form detailed queries to obtain desired results in a desired format. Accordingly, although LLMs are designed to receive natural language input, users often lack the skill, knowledge, or patience to utilize LLMs to their full potential. Ambient information and user history associated with device screenshots are leveraged to provide proactive artificial-intelligence (AI) assistance and query resolution in an LLM environment. In particular, screenshots associated with a computer display are continuously captured and analyzed to detect activity triggers for plugins, for example. In response to detecting an activity trigger, local context associated with one or more prior screenshots is collected. The collected context is then used to inform the plugin for performing the task, thereby reducing the burden placed on the user to input the required information.

  • Publication number: 20250053748
    Abstract: A technique uses a machine-trained model to generate a response based on a prompt which expresses current input information and abstract token information. The abstract token information summarizes a full dialogue history of a dialogue, and is generated by the model itself. The technique reduces the size of the prompt by incorporating the abstract summary information in lieu of the full dialogue history. A training system trains the machine-trained model by successively improving the predictive accuracy of the machine-trained model, while rewarding the machine-trained model based on an extent to which the machine-trained model compresses instances of abstract token information.

  • Publication number: 20240406932
    Abstract: This invention is directed to an ad-hoc peer-to-peer wireless worksite alert system with transceiver devices that communicate with each other using radio signals encoded with a unique identifier for each of the transceiver devices and provide light and audio alerts for worksite workers using the transceiver devices. Each transceiver device includes an alert indicator light, an audio speaker for emitting a siren, and a processor for scanning and transmitting status and alert radio signals. The ad-hoc peer-to-peer wireless worksite alert system does not require a centralized receiver unit and employs a mesh network for direct peer-to-peer communication. The simplicity of a peer-to-peer mesh network provides reliability and the ability to expand the mesh network as needed without additional and expensive equipment for centralized network control and relay.

  • Publication number: 20240354317
    Abstract: A technique uses an encoder system to produce an index of target item embeddings. Each target item embedding is input-agnostic and universal in the sense that different expressions of a target concept, produced using different combinations of input modes, map to the same target item embedding in the index. The encoder system throttles the amount of computations it performs based on the assessed capabilities of an execution platform. A retrieval system processes a multimodal input query by first generating a candidate set of target item embeddings in the index that match the input query, and then using a filtering operation to identify those target item embeddings that are most likely to match the input query. The encoder system and the retrieval system rely on language-based components having weights that are held constant during a training operation. Other weights of these systems are updated during the training operation.
