  • Patent number: 10503739
    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for a query processing system configured to receive user submitted questions and provide answers to the user submitted questions. In an example embodiment a system receives a user query from a user. The system then determines if a response is available that matches an intent of the user query above a threshold confidence level. The systems then prompts the user for permission to enable access to the user query to other users. If permission is granted, the system then enables access to the user query to the user users. Responses to the user query received from one or more of the other users are then output to the user, for example, via a computing device or an appliance. Further, in some embodiments, feedback received from the user regarding output responses can be used to train machine learning models associated with the system.
