Abstract

A media content steering solution is provided to identify a user query to steer playback of media content that is currently playing or has been played. The user steering query can include a voice request for playing media content that is relatively different from the media content being currently played or having been played. The media content steering solution analyzes the utterance of the user query and uses it to identify such different content that satisfies the user intent contained in the user query.
