COLLECTION OF CONTEXT INFORMATION FOR QUESTIONING
One embodiment provides a method, the method including: receiving, at an alert context identification system, an alert initiated by one of a plurality of user devices in operative communication with a central device operated by a presenting user, wherein the alert indicates a user of the one of the plurality of user devices wants to communicate at least with the presenting user; determining, utilizing the alert context identification system, a context occurring at a time of the alert; and providing, to the central device and utilizing the alert context identification system, the context with the alert. Other aspects are claimed and described.
1 . A method, comprising:
receiving, at an alert context identification system, an alert initiated by one of a plurality of user devices in operative communication with a central device operated by a presenting user, wherein the alert indicates a user of the one of the plurality of user devices wants to communicate at least with the presenting user;
determining, utilizing the alert context identification system, a context occurring at a time of the alert; and
providing, to the central device and utilizing the alert context identification system, the context with the alert.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the alert is initiated responsive to the user selecting an alert icon within a graphical user interface of the one of the plurality of user devices.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining a context comprises identifying a location within a presentation being presented by the presenting user and occurring at the time of the alert.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining a context comprises parsing audio content provided at the time of the alert and extracting at least one topic from the parsed audio content.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining a context comprises accessing a secondary information source and identifying, from the secondary information source, a topic of a presentation being presented by the presenting user.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining a context comprises receiving additional information from the user of the one of the plurality of user devices in combination with the alert initiated by the user.
7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising suggesting a response to the user based upon information contained within a presentation being presented by the presenting user.
8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the suggesting a response comprises identifying a response to the user within the presentation.
9 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the suggesting a response comprises indicating a response is upcoming within the presentation.
10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining a context comprises utilizing a machine-learning model.
11 . An information handling device, the information handling device comprising:
a processor;
a memory device that stores instructions that when executed by the processor, causes the information handling device to:
receive, at an alert context identification system, an alert initiated by one of a plurality of user devices in operative communication with a central device operated by a presenting user, wherein the alert indicates a user of the one of the plurality of user devices wants to communicate at least with the presenting user;
determine, utilizing the alert context identification system, a context occurring at a time of the alert; and
provide, to the central device and utilizing the alert context identification system, the context with the alert.
12 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the alert is initiated responsive to the user selecting an alert icon within a graphical user interface of the one of the plurality of user devices.
13 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein to determine a context comprises identifying a location within a presentation being presented by the presenting and occurring at the time of the alert.
14 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein to determine a content comprises parsing audio content provided at the time of the alert and extracting at least one topic from the parsed audio content.
15 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein to determine a context comprises accessing a secondary information source and identifying, from the secondary information source, a topic of a presentation being presented by the presenting user.
16 . The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein to determine a context comprises receiving additional information from the user of the one of the plurality of user devices in combination with the alert initiated by the user.
17 . The information handling device of claim 11 , further comprising suggesting a response to the user based upon information contained within a presentation being presented by the user.
18 . The information handling device of claim 17 , wherein the suggesting a response comprises identifying a response to the user within the presentation.
19 . The information handling device of claim 17 , wherein the suggesting a response comprises indicating a response is upcoming in the presentation.
20 . A product, the product comprising:
a computer-readable storage device that stores executable code that, when executed by a processor, causes the product to:
receive, at an alert context identification system, an alert initiated by one of a plurality of user devices in operative communication with a central device operated by a presenting user, wherein the alert indicates a user of the of the one of the plurality of user devices wants to communicate at least with the presenting user;
determine, utilizing the alert context identification system, a context occurring at a time of the alert; and
provide, to the central device and utilizing the alert context identification system, the context within the alert.
