Abstract: In identifying vehicle navigation requirements using augmented reality, one vehicle determines that an event has occurred that concerns operation of the vehicle. The vehicle determines its current location, creates a notification message corresponding to navigation requirements matching the current location and the event, and sends the notification message. Another vehicle receives the notification message. In response, the other vehicle determines its current environment and a correlation between the navigation requirements and the current environment. An augmented reality system of the other vehicle displays alerts for the navigation requirements overlaid on a display of the current environment based on the correlation. I this manner, vehicle drivers are alerted to the navigation requirements applicable in particular locations or jurisdictions.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product evaluate and mitigate spoilers of entertainment media. A progress of a first user in consuming entertainment media may be tracked. A progress point at which the first user stops consuming the entertainment media may be identified. A second user consuming the entertainment media at a point that is beyond the progress point and within a vicinity of the first user may be detected. An upcoming spoiler for the first user of the entertainment media may be detected by evaluating data of the entertainment media. A mitigating action may be executed in response to detecting the upcoming spoiler.

Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable provisioning for just in time autonomous vehicle deployment. More specifically, a demand is predicted for a set of autonomous vehicles using a criteria. A report is obtained for at least one autonomous vehicle of a plurality of autonomous vehicles indicating a readiness status of the autonomous vehicle. The readiness status of the autonomous vehicle is analyzed, in response to the demand for a set of autonomous vehicles, to determine a preparation time for the autonomous vehicle. A time to begin preparing the autonomous vehicle in order to meet the demand is determined based on the analysis. This time comprises at least a time required to perform an activity that places the autonomous vehicle in a ready-to-use state. In response to the determination, the autonomous vehicle is instructed to start preparing at the determined time.
