Abstract: A semantic based document editor is provided. An application such as a document processing application displays previews of a document. The previews include semantic styles. In response to a selection of one of the previews, a semantic style associated with the selected preview is applied to a section of the document. The semantic style is rendered in the selected preview. A suggestion is displayed on the section. The suggestion identifies the section. The suggestion is also formatted based on the semantic style.

Abstract: An Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven content generation system is configured to interact with and inject user inputs into the decision-making process to navigate the user through the boundless creative space offered by content generation algorithms powered by AI. A content generation application may generate an initial collection of artifacts (e.g., multimedia) for exposure to a user, which may be generated based on user input, context awareness, or randomly generated. Responsive to user selection of one of the initial artifacts, a subsequent collection of artifacts is generated based on characteristics of the selected artifact. The generative process is recursive in that the generative application and the user continue to interact until the user decides to use one of the generated artifacts. The generative process enables the user to navigate the virtually infinite creative space of artifacts which may be generated by AI algorithms.

Abstract: Collaboration communication tools within a document editor are provided. An application such as a document authoring application displays a document and a communication panel adjacent to the document. The communication panel presents a conversation associated with the document. Communications and/or conversations associated with the documents may be obtained from different applications and aggregated to be presented in conjunction with the document. A new entry is detected for an insertion into the conversation associated with the document. The new entry is inserted into the conversation. An insertion of a section of the document into the conversation is also detected. The section of the document is tracked. The section of the document is displayed embedded into the conversation within the communication panel.

Abstract: Techniques for implementing smart annotation of digital content on a computing device are described in this document. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an annotation to a document displayed in an application on a computing device. The application is in an annotation mode in which any received user input is recognized as annotations but not a part of the underlying content. The method also includes determining whether the annotation is related to an editing mark applicable to the underlying content of the document. In response to determining that the received annotation is related to an editing mark, determining an editing operation corresponding to the editing mark and performing the editing operation to the underlying content in the displayed document without exiting the annotation mode of the application.

Abstract: An application builder tool creates business applications from user provided business descriptions. The application builder is customized using metadata and the metadata may be extended. The metadata provides a set of business terms to the user and the information required to generate an application from those terms. The user either selects terms from the list or enters new business terms to describe the business problem they want the application to automate. The application builder analyzes the terms the user provides and uses the metadata associated with those terms to select, generate and combine business application components. The result is a functioning business application.
