Claim 11:
12. An apparatus comprising:
a memory and a processor, the processor being operationally coupled to the memory, and functioning as:
a classifier, that retrieves a plurality of corpus elements from a corpus, each of the plurality of corpus elements comprising first content item and a first user comment for the first content item;
a trainer, that uses the plurality of corpus elements to train a model to generate an artificial comment indicating a statement or opinion about a second content item received from a source other than the corpus, assigns a category to each of the plurality of corpus elements, and assigns a category to the second content item, wherein training the model comprises training a separate model for each assigned category using only one or more corpus elements assigned to that category; and
a personification engine that, using the trained model with the assigned category of the second content item, generates the artificial comment for the second content item received from the source other than the corpus and that sends a notification to a target user group to which the second content item is to be recommended, the notification comprising the second content item and the artificial comment, the initial artificial comment being displayed to a human user to initiate a conversation about the second content item between an artificial personality and the human user.
