  • Publication number: 20250005631
    Abstract: In a system for delivering fresh and/or engaging content to a web site, a programming interface may request a generative artificial intelligence program to generate a summary of an advertisement (or an article) or an answer to a query about the advertisement either (i) on-demand or (ii) in anticipation of a later request, and store the summary or answer. Scripting language programming instructions monitors whether a user viewing a web site screen engages the advertisement (or the headline of the article) by taking a predefined action, and (b) when the user engages the advertisement (or the headline) by the predefined action, displays the summary of the advertisement (or of the article) or the answer to the query about the advertisement on the user's device while the web site is still viewed by the user. A web crawler may crawl for the articles on a topic or may crawl the advertisements.

  • Patent number: 12067643
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can obtain data associated with a computer-based experience. The computer-based experience can be based on interactive real-time technology. At least one virtual camera can be configured within the computer-based experience in an animation creation application. A plurality of shots that correspond to two-dimensional content can be generated from an edit cut of content captured by the at least one virtual camera in the animation creation application. Data associated with a two-dimensional version of the computer-based experience can be generated in a real-time engine based on the plurality of shots. The two-dimensional version can be rendered based on the generated data.

  • Publication number: 20240237593
    Abstract: Device for inhibiting weed growth in a pot, where the pot defines a rim around an opening. The device includes a body configured to cover at least a portion of the opening and connect about the rim. The body defines a centrally arranged aperture for receiving a plant arranged in the pot, and is shaped to form a concave upper region surrounding the aperture. The concave upper region is arranged to direct liquid received on the upper region to flow towards and through an outlet to enter the pot. At least the concave upper region is configured to be opaque such that, when arranged across the opening of the pot in use, the body inhibits light transmission through the opening.

  • Publication number: 20240232941
    Abstract: Systems and methods for post transaction seasonal item recommendations are disclosed. In some embodiments, a current seasonal time window associated with a seasonal event and some seasonal product types is determined. Based on historical transaction data of the seasonal product types, a first seasonal index score is computed for each item, and a second seasonal index score is computed for each product type including one or more items. A seasonal rank score is generated for each item based on the first seasonal index score and the second seasonal index score, such that the items in the historical transaction data are ranked based on their respective seasonal rank scores. Based on the ranked items and a transaction order from a user, a list of recommended items is generated and displayed to the user.

  • Patent number: 11880888
    Abstract: A method performed by a first microservice processor includes receiving a first user indication from a first computing device from a plurality of computing devices of a second user that indicates that a first user requested a service of the second user. A first user-specific data container object is generated that includes first user-specific data elements associated with the service provided to the first user. First user-specific service-necessity information data objects are obtained from electronic resources. The first user-specific data elements and the first user-specific service-necessity information data objects are inputted into a machine learning engine to obtain ranked reference-claim data objects. A chosen reference-claim data object from the ranked reference-claim data objects is chosen by the second user to justify providing the service to the first user.
