Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes, by one or more computing systems, receiving, from a client system associated with a first user, a first user input from the first user, identifying one or more entities referenced by the first user input, determining a classification of the first user input based on a machine-learning classifier model, generating several candidate conversational fillers based on the classification of the first user input and the one or more identified entities, wherein each candidate conversational filler references at least one of the one or more identified entities, ranking the candidate conversational fillers based on a relevancy of the candidate conversational filler to the first user input and a decay model hysteresis, and sending instructions for presenting a top-ranked candidate conversational filler as an initial response to the first user.
