Abstract
Techniques for providing automated media commentary are provided. A user agent requests audio commentary for media. In response, a service searches data sources to identify the specified media, finds information related to those entities, generates text that represents those information, combines the text into a textual monologue, and synthesizes speech audio from that textual monologue. The service selects relevant information to be likely unknown to the user while also being desired by the user.
