Abstract

Conversation user interfaces that are configured for virtual assistant interaction may include tasks to be completed that may have repetitious entry of the same or similar information. User preferences may be learned by the system and may be confirmed by the user prior to the learned preference being implemented. Learned preferences may be identified in near real-time on large collections of data for a large population of users. Further, the learned preferences may be based at least in part on previous conversations and actions between the system and the user as well as user-defined occurrence thresholds.
