Smart Reply
plat_iosplat_android
With ML Kit's Smart Reply API, you can automatically generate relevant
replies to messages. Smart Reply helps your users respond to messages quickly,
and makes it easier to reply to messages on devices with limited input
capabilities.
The Smart Reply model generates reply suggestions based on the full
context of a conversation, and not just a single message, resulting in
suggestions that are more helpful to your users.
Runs on the device
The on-device model generates replies quickly, and doesn't require you to
send users' messages to a remote server.
Limitations
Smart Reply is intended for casual conversations in consumer apps. Reply
suggestions might not be appropriate for other contexts or audiences.
Currently, only English is supported. The model automatically detects if a
different language is used and if so, will not provide suggestions.
How the model works
The model uses up to 10 of the most recent messages from a conversation
history to generate reply suggestions.
It detects the language of the conversation and only attempts to provide
responses when the language is determined to be English.
Next, the model compares the messages against a list of sensitive topics and
won’t provide suggestions when it detects a sensitive topic.
If the language is determined to be English and no sensitive topics are
detected, the model provides up to three suggested responses. The number of
responses depends on how many meet a sufficient level of confidence based on
the input to the model.
Providing feedback
Due to the complexity of natural language processing, the suggestions provided
by the model might not be appropriate for all contexts or audiences. If you
encounter inappropriate reply suggestions, reach out to
Firebase support. Your feedback
helps to continue to improve the model and sensitive topic filter.
