Pask: Providing Answer before AsKing toward Proactive AI agent

摘要

We present Pask, a proactive AI agent that provides real-time, context-aware guidance and knowledge support in audio-centric media environments. Unlike passive assistants that follow the ''you ask, I answer'' model, Pask shifts toward ''answering before asking'' by continuously monitoring live audio, anticipating user needs, and proactively offering conceptual explanations and semantic clarifications. It integrates three core components: a silent copilot for in-situ explanation, a structured knowledge base for factual grounding, and a private memory module for personalized adaptation. Pask enhances comprehension and communication in scenarios such as online learning, media consumption, and live meetings through sustained, intelligent guidance.
