• initiate, by a processor of the computerized answering system, a user session for a client device;
• provide, by a network interface of the computerized answering system via the network, answers to one or more questions for presentation in a user interface of a display of the client device, the presentation of the answers being based on a default profile;
• monitor, by the processor, user interaction with one or more of the answers presented in the user interface of the display of the client device during the user session,
• wherein monitoring user interaction further includes monitoring user activity and feedback conducted within the user interface during the user session, the feedback selected from the group consisting of a user-selected rating for the one or more of the answers and a user comment about the one or more of the answers;
• select, by the processor, a first user profile from a plurality of user profiles in response to a determination that attributes of the user interaction correspond to attributes of the first user profile;
• and
• modify, by the processor, the user interface of the display of the client device to change from presenting the answers based on the default profile to presenting the answers based on the first user profile.

A server for implementing a computerized answering system for providing answers to client devices of a network, comprising:

• an indication that only a specified number of answers be displayed,
• an indication that only answers with a certain confidence value be displayed, and
• an indication that evidence for answers be displayed;
• modify the user interface of the display of the client device to change from presenting the answers based on the default profile to presenting the answers based on the first user profile;
• receive a new question for the computerized answering system from the client device;
• generate one or more answers to the new question;
• and
• present the one or more answers to the new question in the user interface of the display of the client device based on the first user profile.
