Abstract: A design console provides interaction with a developer in a graphical interface of a virtual agent programming system where elements of an intended dialog between the virtual agent and a chat (developer) user are shown as dialog boxes in the graphical interface, including a trigger element which processes and detects from the input messages processed an intent by the chat user to invoke the virtual agent based on one or more stored utterances; an interaction module which sends a virtual agent message to the chat user, and receives therefrom an utterance responsive to the virtual agent message; and an action element that carries out a specified user intent based on the values of the parameters converted by the interaction module from the utterance collected from the chat user.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system for selecting personalized content for a user, the method being performed by an evaluation tool instantiated on a computing device and comprising the evaluation tool. The evaluation tool creates a content selection rule for the user for finding and filtering content items, such as advertising content. The tool generates a content selection algorithm from the content selection rule for determining which content items to present to the user and presents the content item to the user based on the content selection algorithm and allows the user to interact with the presented content item.

The tool also monitors the user's interaction with the presented content item for determining a modification of the content selection algorithm based on the user's interaction and presents the content item to the user based on the modified selection algorithm. The tool also enables the user to view and modify the selection rule and the content selection algorithm.
