Abstract
A method for providing an auto-play mode option to a user during gameplay of a video game includes accessing, by a server, a user play model, which incorporates extracted features related to gameplay by the user and classification of the extracted features. The accessing of the model is triggered at a current time during gameplay. The method also includes identifying, by the server, predicted interactive activity that is predicted to occur ahead of the current time of gameplay. The method further includes identifying, by the server, at least part of the predicted interactive activity to be anticipated grinding content (AGC). The method also includes providing a notification, by the server, to a display screen of a user device, where the notification identifies the AGC in upcoming gameplay and provides the user with an option to use the auto-play mode during gameplay of the AGC.
