Abstract

A computerized personal assistant communicatively couples to a computer database including a plurality of available skills for the computerized personal assistant. The computerized personal assistant recognizes a current context of the user. The computerized personal assistant operates a previously-trained machine learning classifier to assess a match confidence for a candidate skill, the match confidence indicating a quality of match between the current context and a reference context previously associated with the candidate skill. The computerized personal assistant executes instructions defining an assistive action associated with the candidate skill responsive to the match confidence exceeding a predefined match confidence threshold. The computerized personal assistant executes the instructions defining a complementary help action associated with the candidate skill responsive to the match confidence not exceeding the predefined match confidence threshold.
