Abstract
Collaborative editing of digital objects such as documents, slide presentations, etc. is common. Large, complex documents may have a large number of collaborators. Current document sharing technologies enable users to add collaborators with different levels of permission for the entire digital object. Per techniques of this disclosure, document metadata are updated to include respective empathy tags associated with different portions of the document. Each tag identifies specific users (or groups) and associated permissions for that portion. In this manner, granular content access control is enabled, allowing users fine-grained control over which collaborators have what level of access to different parts of the digital object. Selective content sharing is based on the agentic AI framework and can be implemented as an AI agent.
