Abstract

A method, a computer program product, and a computer system selectively obfuscate a reaction during a communication session. The method includes determining a predicted sentiment for a user who is a participant in a communication session based on a topic being discussed in the communication session. The method includes determining a predicted expression for a reaction to be exhibited by the user based on sensory inputs received from the user while the topic is being discussed. The method includes determining an intent of the reaction based on the predicted sentiment and the predicted expression. The method includes determining a reward score of the reaction based on a type of the reaction and a context of the communication session while the predicted expression is to be exhibited. The method includes rendering a mask over the user based on at least one of the intent and the reward score.
