Abstract: A computerized personal assistant includes a natural language user interface, a natural language processing machine, an identity machine, and a knowledge-base updating machine. The knowledge-base updating machine is configured to update a user-centric artificial intelligence knowledge base associated with the particular user to include a new or updated user-centric fact based on the computer-readable representation of the user input, wherein the knowledge-base updating machine updates the user-centric artificial intelligence knowledge base via an update protocol useable by a plurality of different computer services.

Abstract: A computing system obtain a keyword and an identifier for a user of a content authoring application. Based upon the keyword and identifier for the user, the computing system walks a user graph comprising nodes connected by edges. The walk comprises identifying seed nodes in the user graph representing at least one topic that corresponds to the keyword and identifying second level nodes in the user graph that are connected to the seed nodes. The second level nodes represent first content that is associated with the user. The computing system transmits contextual data that is based upon the first content to the content authoring application. The contextual data is processed and formatted and is included in second content presentable by the content authoring application. The contextual data may be used to autogenerate the second content without user input. The second content may be modified by the user as desired.

Abstract: An intelligent assistant leverages private data specific to users and data available publically on one or more networks to improve the functionality of devices used to present content. A user's actions in a content authoring application are observed by the intelligent assistant and used to predict the user's actions. The public data related to the content in the presentation are also used to augment the presentation and to suggest best practices in presenting the content. In some aspects, a “practice” presentation is given by the user to provide the intelligent assistant a baseline to which to assist the user in realtime comply with during a “live” presentation or to receive suggestions in how to improve the presentation prior to presenting it “live”.
