  • Publication number: 20250238630
    Abstract: Systems described herein may provide responses to chatbot prompts that correspond to both a user's preferences and accepted views of society. A chat recommendation server may receive a prompt from a user device. The chat recommendation server may determine a general Overton window and a user-specific Overton window associated with the prompt. The chat recommendation server may generate a plurality of candidate response using the first machine learning model, input the prompt and the plurality of candidate responses to a second machine learning model, and receive, as output from the second machine learning model, a polarization score for each of the plurality of candidate responses. Based on the polarization scores, a recommended response may be selected which minimizes a distance between the user-specific Overton window and the general Overton window. Accordingly, the recommended response may be displayed on the user device.

  • Patent number: 12356499
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating real-time location-based notifications are described. In some aspects, the system processes, using a first machine learning model, a real-time video stream to determine a measure of significance of an event depicted in the real-time video stream. The system determines whether the user was present at the event. Based on determining that the user was present at the event, the system processes a user profile for the user and the measure of significance of the event to determine whether to generate for the user a cryptographic token associated with the event. Based on determining to generate for the user the cryptographic token associated with the event, the system generates a notification to the user including information for accessing the cryptographic token for the user.

  • Patent number: 12333000
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for generating group definition sequences for accounts (e.g., user accounts) using action sequence processing and then classifying accounts using those group definition sequences. A plurality of user account actions and corresponding time that each action was taken may be received and based on that information, a sequence of action types sometimes referred to as a time-ordered dataset of action types (e.g., based on a chronological order of the actions) may be generated. The time-ordered dataset of action types may be compared with known time-ordered sequences for a particular user group or user classification. If the time-ordered dataset of action types matches the time-ordered sequences of the particular user group, the user may be classified into that user group.

  • Patent number: 12289216
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for modifying scheduled events based on bandwidth availability. To modify the scheduled event, the system determines a plurality of user devices corresponding to an event. The system receives first network conditions for a first user device and generates a feature input based on the first network conditions. The system inputs the feature input into an artificial intelligence model to determine a first available bandwidth metric and aggregates the first available bandwidth metric with respective available bandwidth metrics for other user devices of the plurality of user devices to determine a composite available bandwidth metric. The system can compare the composite available bandwidth metric to a threshold available bandwidth metric and in response to determining that the composite available bandwidth metric equals or exceeds the threshold available bandwidth metric, the system generates for display, on a user device interface, a recommendation for modifying the event.
