Abstract
A question database storing questions and a conditional probability of one question to be asked given that a previous question was asked is searched to predict a future question based on the conditional probability stored in the question database given an input question as the previous question. The future question is suggested to a user. Responsive to receiving an acceptance of the future question, the question database is updated to strengthen the conditional probability associated with the future question occurring given the input question. An answer to the future question can be provided and searching, predicting, suggesting and updating may be repeated, with the future question as the input question, until the future question is declined.
