What changed

This document is a publication of a US patent application (US20260083369A1) filed by International Business Machines Corporation on September 23, 2024. The application describes a system that measures a user's cognitive load via mobile device sensors and adjusts parameters of a content generation model to produce 'cognitive load aware content' (CLA content). The goal is to maintain the user's cognitive load within a specified threshold.

As this is a patent application, it does not impose immediate regulatory obligations. However, it signals potential future technological developments in AI and user experience that could impact how AI-generated content is delivered across various platforms. Compliance professionals in technology and consumer-facing sectors should monitor advancements in AI personalization and user interface design, as such technologies may eventually be subject to consumer protection or data privacy regulations.

Abstract

An embodiment configures, from an application executing in a mobile device, a sensor to provide a measurement of a factor affecting a user. A value of a cognitive load of the user is inferred from the measurement. An adjustment to a parameter of a content generation model is produced from the application. At the content generation model, a modification in a generated content is caused because of to the adjustment to the parameter. A cognitive load aware content (CLA content) is caused to be output from content generation model because of the modification such that the CLA content causes the cognitive load of the user to remain within a threshold value.
