Abstract: The invention provides, in some aspects, a system for digital content retrieval and generation that includes a digital data processing system and one or more content management systems executing on the digital data processing system. Each content management system comprises, for each of a plurality of digital assets, (i) an identifier of the respective digital asset and (ii) one or more associated tags that characterize that asset, An ontology manager executing on the digital data processing system represents one or more ontologies of different respective knowledge domains. Each of those representations includes (i) plural content facets, each of which corresponds to one or more tags of the content management system, and (ii) one or more dialog facets, each associated with one or more content facets and each including a dialog segment expandable using those associated content facets, A plurality of chat bots execute on the digital data processing system.

Abstract: A system for digital content that includes a content management system, an ontology manager and a chat bot, all executing and in communications coupling on a digital data processing system. The content manager stores a plurality of tagged digital assets. The ontology manager stores a list of (or otherwise maintains) plural facets, each corresponding to one or more tags—and at least one corresponding to two or more tags, e.g., of differing domains—of the content management system. One or more dialog segments and sequence identifiers are maintained in the ontology manager, as well, each associated with one or more other facets. The chat bot drives a conversation with an end-user based on facets identified as associated with assets in the content management system and using dialog segments associated with those facets, while excluding those facets not so identified.
