Abstract

A system can generate and render, at a computing device, a page comprising a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes a displayable item from a first block of a block-based data structure. The system can use at least a portion of a natural language prompt received by the GUI to cause a neural network (e.g., an LLM) to generate a query executable against the block-based data structure to return a result set comprising a second block. The second block is not initially displayed at the page and can be discoverable by determining query context using at least a portion of the natural language prompt in combination with a property of the first block. The system can cause the generated query to be executed against the block-based data structure to generate and display, at the GUI, (i) an ephemeral view comprising the result set and (ii) a query tuning control configured to enable dynamic tuning of the generated query via the GUI.

Claims20

Dependent claims

One or more tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable storage media excluding transitory signals and carrying instructions, the media comprising instructions recorded thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by at least one data processor of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations associated with a block-based data structure comprising a render tree, the operations comprising:

providing, at a computing device, a page comprising a displayable item from a first block from a set of blocks included in the render tree;
generating a schema definition configured to enable data discovery of a subset of blocks in the set of blocks, wherein the subset of blocks is generated using permissions information for a user, and wherein the permissions information associates the subset of blocks with the first block in the render tree via pointer;
in response to receiving a prompt, performing operations comprising:
determining a property of the first block;
cross-referencing the property of the first block, using the schema definition, to a second block in the subset of blocks included in the schema definition;
and
causing an artificial intelligence (AI) model to generate a query to return a result set comprising the second block from the block-based data structure;
and
using the result set, generating and displaying (i) a view comprising the result set and (ii) a tuning control configured to enable dynamic tuning of the generated query.

A computer-implemented method to perform operations associated with a block-based data structure comprising a render tree, the method comprising:

providing, at a computing device, a page comprising a displayable item from a first block from a set of blocks included in the render tree;
generating a schema definition configured to enable data discovery of a subset of blocks in the set of blocks, wherein the subset of blocks is generated using permissions information for a user, and wherein the permissions information associates the subset of blocks with the first block in the render tree via pointer;
in response to receiving a prompt, performing operations comprising:
determining a property of the first block;
cross-referencing the property of the first block, using the schema definition, to a second block in the subset of blocks included in the schema definition;
and
causing an artificial intelligence (AI) model to generate a query to return a result set comprising the second block from the block-based data structure;
and
using the result set, generating and displaying (i) a view comprising the result set and (ii) a tuning control configured to enable dynamic tuning of the generated query.
