Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, devices, and tangible non-transitory computer readable media for adaptive adjustment of playback. The disclosed technology can include accessing content data that includes one or more portions of content for a user. One or more content complexities of the one or more portions of content can be determined. One or more content relevancies of the one or more portions of content can be determined. One or more playback rates can be determined. The one or more playback rates can be based at least in part on the one or more content complexities or the one or more content relevancies. Furthermore, output associated with playback of the one or more portions of content can be generated at the one or more playback rates.
