Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional human-computer interaction scenarios require users to perform multiple operations, such as waking up a chatbot and entering commands, which can be cumbersome and increase interaction frequency.

Innovation Solution

A terminal device predicts user intents based on location information and displays relevant content automatically, reducing the need for explicit user commands by pushing information such as scenic spot guides or utilizing a smart assistant within the MeeTime application.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If the terminal device actively pushes content based on location information, then the quantity of user interactions and command entries is reduced, but the device complexity increases due to location monitoring and content prediction mechanisms

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantity of user interactionsVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The terminal device performs preliminary actions by monitoring location information in advance and predicting user intentions before the user actually needs information. The system proactively pushes relevant content (such as scenic spot guides) based on predicted intentions, eliminating the need for users to manually query or enter commands, thus reducing interaction quantity while managing complexity through automated prediction algorithms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If the terminal device uses location-based content prediction, then the productivity of information delivery is improved, but the loss of user privacy increases due to location monitoring

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveproductivityVSAvoiduser privacy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by providing personalized content predictions based on the user's specific location context. Instead of generic mass messaging, the terminal device analyzes location information to determine relevant content (such as scenic spot guides when at a tourist location) and delivers targeted information. This localized approach improves productivity through relevant information delivery while managing privacy by using only necessary location data for specific context-aware predictions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A content pushing method, an apparatus, a storage medium, and a chip system are provided, to reduce a quantity of interactions between a user and a terminal device. In this application, the terminal device obtains first information, where the first information includes location information of the terminal device. When the first information meets a preset first condition, the terminal device displays second information. The second information includes to-be-pushed content associated with the first information or a link of the to-be-pushed content. The first condition includes: A location corresponding to the location information of the terminal device is in a first area, and a type of the first area is one of preset area types. Because the second information may be pushed based on the location information of the terminal device, a query step in a process in which the user actively queries the second information may be reduced. In this way, a quantity of times of entering a command by the user can be reduced, and a quantity of interactions between the user and the terminal device can be reduced.
