A method for personalizing media content for a user is provided. The method includes, at an electronic device, streaming a first media item from a first set of media items, the first set of media items compiled using a first recommendation hypothesis. The method further includes, while streaming the first media item, in response to a first user request, selecting, without user intervention, a second set of media items, distinct from the first set of media items, including determining a presentation order of a plurality of sets of media items using a heuristic applied to the plurality of sets of media items. The second set of media items is compiled using a second recommendation hypothesis, wherein the second recommendation hypothesis is distinct from the first recommendation hypothesis. The method includes streaming a second media item from the second set of media items.

Systems and methods for switching between media content

The various implementations described herein include methods and devices for identifying and presenting content to users. In one aspect, a method includes providing a domain specific language (DSL) tool to a user of the computing device and receiving a plurality of user inputs via the DSL tool. The plurality of user inputs includes: an input identifying a DSL object corresponding to a media pool; an input identifying a DSL object corresponding to a mutator to be applied to the media pool; and inputs identifying a plurality of DSL objects corresponding to respective objectives for a media set list. The method also includes generating the media set list from the media pool based on the mutator and the objectives and presenting information about the generated media set list to the user.

A system for refinement of a voice query interpretation interprets a voice query received at a voice-enabled device to identify commands responsive to the voice query for execution at the voice-enabled device, and enables refinement of the interpretation of the voice query through a graphical user interface generated and displayed at a GUI-capable device. The graphical user interface includes a set of selectable options relating to the voice query and identifying a refinement of the interpretation of the voice query to enable control and/or adjustment of commands to be executed by the voice-enabled device. For example, if one of the selectable options is selected, then a command associated with the selected option is identified and executed by the voice-enabled device.

Refinement of voice query interpretation

An electronic device displays a first icon comprising a shape. While displaying the first icon, the device receives a voice command corresponding to a request for media content from the application. In response to, and while receiving, the voice command, the device dynamically animates the first icon, including distorting a radius of a portion of the shape in accordance with a direction of the voice command. The dynamic animation indicates that the electronic device is in a first state. After the voice command is completed, the device displays an indication that the device is in a second state that is distinct from the first state.

Methods and systems for providing animated visual feedback for voice commands

A method includes retrieving a plurality of transcripts from a database. Each transcript in the plurality of transcripts corresponds to audio from a media content item of a plurality of media content items that are provided by a media providing service. The method also includes applying each transcript of the plurality of transcripts to a trained computational model, and receiving a user request for information regarding a topic. The method further includes, in response to the user request, identifying a transcript from the database that is relevant to the topic, and a position within the transcript that is relevant to the topic. The method also includes providing, by the media providing service, at least a portion of a media content item corresponding to the identified transcript, beginning at a starting position that is based on the position within the identified transcript that is relevant to the topic.
