The present embodiments relate to automated memory creation and retrieval from moment content items. In some implementations, the automated memory creation and retrieval system can obtain moment content items from user-designated sources with a single user perspective or multiple user perspectives. The moment content items can be assigned tags and arranged in chronological order. The arranged moment content items can be clustered into memory content items based on clustering conditions. Once memory content items are created, they can be arranged into a memory hierarchy made up of connected nodes. In some implementations, the memory content items are also linked together based on similarity in various dimensions in a memory graph. The automated memory creation and retrieval system can receive search criteria for memories from a user interface and provide the user with memories from matched nodes in the memory hierarchy or linked memories in the memory graph.

Automated memory creation and retrieval from moment content items

A conversation augmentation system can automatically augment a conversation with content items based on natural language from the conversation. The conversation augmentation system can select content items to add to the conversation based on determined user 'intents' generated using machine learning models. The conversation augmentation system can generate intents for natural language from various sources, such as video chats, audio conversations, textual conversations, virtual reality environments, etc. The conversation augmentation system can identify constraints for mapping the intents to content items or context signals for selecting appropriate content items. In various implementations, the conversation augmentation system can add selected content items to a storyline the conversation describes or can augment a platform in which an unstructured conversation is occurring.

Automated conversation content items from natural language

An automatic memory system can automatically identify and present content items that match a user's natural language (NL) input. The automatic memory system can compute a match score between the NL input and each of multiple potential memory content items. The automatic memory system can compute the match score using a variety of algorithms and/or machine learning models such as an image/NL matching process to get a first match score, a tag matching process to get a second match score, and/or a combination match score from the first and second match scores. The automatic memory system can select one or more of the content items with the highest match score(s). The automatic memory system can provide the selected content items, such as by suggesting them to the NL providing user, automatically displaying or playing them, inserting them into the conversation thread, etc.
