Abstract
The present invention generally relates to intelligent software agents. Agents are interfaced with through user interfaces that are generated according to the agent's intelligence. In one aspect, the interfaces are dynamically and programmatically generated in response to a request from a user desiring to interface with a particular agent. In this way, the interface may be generated in real time according to the applied intelligence of the agent. Interfaces may also be updated periodically and, in this way, be available prior to a user's request.
