Solution Overview

Problem

Existing educational materials are generic and do not provide specific recommendations tailored to a consumer's current situation, requiring users to independently research and interpret general advice.

Innovation Solution

An AI model fuses user data with articles to generate personalized content, embedding clickable links and an 'add to cart' function, allowing users to directly access relevant products or services.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If generic educational materials are provided to all consumers, then the literature can be broadly applicable to various consumer needs, but the content lacks specific recommendations tailored to individual consumer situations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepersonalization of contentVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system pre-processes and stores consumer data from multiple sources (demographic information, browsing behavior, transaction history) before generating personalized content. This preliminary data preparation enables the AI model to quickly generate tailored recommendations without real-time complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

An AI model acts as an intermediary between generic educational articles and individual consumers. The model fuses standard content with personalized consumer attributes to generate customized recommendations, eliminating the need for complex one-to-one content creation while maintaining high personalization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Ease of operation

If consumers must independently research and interpret general advice, then they can find information on their own, but this process consumes significant time and effort

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of obtaining personalized adviceVSAvoidtime for research and interpretation
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system automatically performs data collection, analysis, and content personalization without requiring consumer effort. Consumers simply access their personalized recommendations, while the system handles all research and interpretation tasks autonomously

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system continuously monitors consumer interactions with personalized content and uses this feedback to refine future recommendations. This creates an automated loop where the system learns from consumer behavior and improves personalization accuracy over time

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Loss of information

If educational materials provide only informational content, then they educate consumers about options, but they lack direct actionable recommendations for specific consumer situations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverelevance of information to consumer needsVSAvoidautomation of recommendation generation
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSExtent of automation

Solution Approach 1:

The system transforms static educational content into dynamic personalized recommendations by changing key parameters: incorporating real-time consumer data, adjusting content based on individual attributes, and generating specific actionable recommendations rather than general information

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

An example operation may include one or more of generating an article of content based on execution of an artificial intelligence (AI) model on contextual attributes of a user and a plurality of articles stored within a data store, embedding a product within the article of content, displaying the article of content via a user interface of a user device and embedding an add to cart function associated with the product into the user interface, detecting an input with respect to the add to cart function displayed within the user interface, and in response to the detected input, displaying a notification on the user interface with a cart that includes the product therein.
