Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional digital assistants are limited to responding to user commands and lack the ability to provide contextual assistance in conversations, failing to account for the context and content of communication.

Innovation Solution

An intelligent conversational messaging system that generates and injects customized expert systems into conversations, allowing for data exchange and interaction with participants without notification, using conversation analysis and machine learning to determine conversation types and activate relevant expert agents to execute specific goal processes.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional digital assistants respond only to direct user commands, then the system operation is simple and reliable, but the conversation efficiency and contextual assistance are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconversation efficiencyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

An expert system intermediary is introduced between the conversation participants and the digital assistant. This intermediary analyzes conversation context, identifies relevant expertise domains, and selectively activates expert agents to provide contextual assistance without requiring direct user activation, thereby improving conversation efficiency while managing complexity through modular architecture

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The digital assistant performs self-service by automatically analyzing conversation context and activating relevant expert agents without requiring direct user commands. The system monitors conversation flow, determines when expert intervention is needed, and autonomously engages appropriate expertise, reducing the need for complex user-initiated commands while maintaining simple operation interfaces

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

2Adaptability or versatility

If expert systems are activated based on conversation context analysis, then contextual assistance is improved, but the measurement precision of conversation type determination is challenged

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecontextual assistanceVSAvoidconversation type determination accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The conversation analysis function is segmented into multiple independent modules: conversation monitoring, context extraction, expertise domain identification, and expert agent selection. Each module handles a specific aspect of conversation type determination, improving overall adaptability while maintaining measurement precision through specialized processing in each segment rather than relying on a single complex determination system

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs partial analysis by focusing only on relevant conversation aspects that indicate expert intervention is needed, rather than analyzing the entire conversation in detail. This selective approach improves adaptability by quickly identifying when contextual assistance is appropriate while maintaining determination accuracy by concentrating analytical resources on key indicators

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

3Productivity

If expert agents execute actions within conversations without notification, then conversation flow is maintained, but the reliability of user awareness is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconversation flowVSAvoiduser awareness
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The expert system creates a parallel copy of the conversation context that it analyzes independently. This copy allows the expert agent to execute actions based on contextual understanding without interrupting the original conversation flow, while the system maintains reliability by ensuring the copied analysis accurately reflects the actual conversation state through continuous synchronization

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

AI summary

A system for implementing a computer-based assistance in a conversation can comprise determining an identification indication associated with a first participant in a conversation. The system can also comprise accessing, within a database, user information associated with the identification indication. The user information can comprise data relating to the first participant. Based upon the user information and one or more words communicated in the conversation, the system can include calculating one or more probabilities that the conversation is associated with one or more respective conversation types. Based upon a determined conversation type, the system can activate an expert agent in the conversation. The expert agent can comprise a virtual conversation participant that is associated with a goal. The system can also comprise executing a sequential lists of actions that are associated with the goal, wherein the list of actions comprises interactions with the first participant.
