A next question to ask is automatically selected by a processor based on the updated state of the conversation thread. The next question is presented to the user. A next answer to the next question is received. The state of the conversation thread is updated based on the next answer. The selecting, presenting, receiving, and updating are repeated until a criterion is satisfied.
