The paper presents DSI, a duration-aware interface that exposes a compact summary of predicted watch-outcome distributions to downstream readouts. It predicts joint category-time distributions, freezes the provider, and serves summaries to task-specific heads. DSI had the lowest MAE among nine baselines across three datasets; on KuaiRand-1K, MAE was 12.3244 versus 12.5668 seconds for D2Q. Results are warm-start offline evaluations, not live results.
