Personalized informational user experiences using visual content
Disclosed are various examples for to generating personalized user experiences in the form of short-form videos that summarize informational topics that are selected to present to a user according at least one of a user context or a user interest. As the informational topics are identified for a given user, the informational topics can be applied as inputs to a recommendation model that is trained to recommend one or more of the topics to summarize and present to a user in visual form based on at least one of the user context or the user interest. Once a topic is recommended by the recommendation model, a video or other type of visual content can be automatically generated and presented to a user to allow the user to consume the information in the summarized form.
