Abstract

Systems and method for determining the intent of a search query are presented. A system can process a user's search query and determine the user's intent is to receive an itemized list of results, including references to content items that satisfy the search query, and/or to receive generated content, including a natural language response that satisfies the search query. The system can use an AI system, such as a Large Language Model, to process the search query. The system can present multiple input fields, and determine an intent of the search query based on which input field received the search query. The input fields can correspond to different experiences (e.g., a list of search results and/or a chat experience), where the system presents search results differently based on the corresponding experience.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method for presenting results of a search query responsive to a determination of an intent of the search query, the results based on content items accessible through a workspace, the workspace including a collection of content items, the method comprising:

receiving, at an input field on a user interface of the workspace, a search query;
determining an intent of the search query based on processing the content of the search query and identifying an input field of a plurality of input fields on the user interface that received the search query;
compiling preliminary results that satisfy the search query, the preliminary results comprising:
a set of content items that satisfy the search query, and
a natural language response to the search query,
wherein the natural language response is generated as output of a generative artificial intelligence (AI) system based at least in part on input including the set of content items that satisfy the search query;
and
causing presentation, on an interface of the workspace, of the preliminary results,
wherein presented representations of the preliminary results are configured to prioritize either references to content items in the set of content items or the natural language response, wherein the prioritization is based on the determined intent of the search query.

6 more elements

At least one non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions recorded thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by at least one data processor of a system, cause the system to:

cause concurrent presentations, at an interface of a workspace, of a first input field at a first location of the interface and a second input field at a second location of the interface,
wherein the first input field and the second input field are configured to cause the workspace to, in response to receiving a search query, perform at least one of:
a search for content items that satisfy the search query, or a generation of a natural language response to the search query,
wherein the first input field is weighted to prioritize references to content items that satisfy a received search query, and
wherein the second input field is weighted to prioritize generated content that satisfies a received search query;
in response to receiving a first search query at the first input field, cause presentation, at the interface of the workspace, of first search results that are weighted to prioritize references to content items that satisfy the first search query;
and
in response to receiving a second search query at the second input field, cause presentation, at the interface of the workspace, of second results that are weighted to prioritize a natural language response to the second search query,
wherein the natural language response is generated using and artificial intelligence (AI) system.

6 more elements

A system comprising:

at least one hardware processor;
and
at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions, which, when executed by the at least one hardware processor, cause the system to:
cause presentation, on an interface of a workspace, a first input field in a first location and a second input field in a second location;
compile, in response to receiving a search query at either the first input field or the second input field, a set of content items accessible through the workspace that satisfies the search query;
generate, in response to receiving the search query at either the first input field or the second input field and based at least in part on the compiled set of content items, a natural language response that satisfies the search query;
cause presentation, on an interface of the workspace, representations of references to content items in the compiled set of content items and/or the natural language response,
wherein the representations are configured to prioritize either the references to content items or the natural language response,
wherein the prioritization is based at least in part on whether the first input field or the second input field received the search query.
