An indication that the intelligent personal assistant service is added as an active participant within the message thread may be received, at a processing device. Content from the intelligent personal assistant service may be received directly into the message application. As an example, content may be provided, within the messaging application, as a message draft that may be modified before inclusion within a message thread. An input may be provided indicating to include the received content within the message thread. In response to providing the input, content received from the intelligent personal assistant service may be displayed within the message thread.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2016Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Zachary Adam Pfriem, Mark Jozef Vitazko, Jared Frew, Jason Michael Nelson

Patent number: 10666594Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe proactive action by an intelligent personal assistant application/service to improve functionality of one or more applications. In one example, an intelligent personal assistant service may interface with a messaging application to analyze a message thread within the messaging application. The intelligent personal assistant service may analyze the message thread by evaluating context of message content within the message thread. Analysis of the message thread may occur proactively without requiring an explicit request for assistance from a user of a processing device. In response to the analyzing of the message thread, the intelligent personal assistant service may proactively provide a cue that includes content retrieved by the intelligent personal assistant service. An input may be received to include the cue within the message thread. In response to receiving the input, the cue may be displayed within the message thread.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2018Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Zachary Adam Pfriem, Mark Jozef Vitazko, Jared Frew, Jason Michael Nelson
