Patent number: 11012560Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, relating to synthetic call status updates. In some implementations, a method includes determining, by a task manager module, that a triggering event has occurred to provide a current status of a user call request. The method may then determine, by the task manager module, the current status of the user call request. A representation of the current status of the user call request is generated. Then, the generated representation of the current status of the user call request is provided to the user.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2018Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Eyal Segalis, Daniel Walevski, Yaniv Leviathan, Yossi Matias

Publication number: 20210065702Abstract: Generating expanded responses that guide continuance of a human-to computer dialog that is facilitated by a client device and that is between at least one user and an automated assistant. The expanded responses are generated by the automated assistant in response to user interface input provided by the user via the client device, and are caused to be rendered to the user via the client device, as a response, by the automated assistant, to the user interface input of the user. An expanded response is generated based on at least one entity of interest determined based on the user interface input, and is generated to incorporate content related to one or more additional entities that are related to the entity of interest, but that are not explicitly referenced by the user interface input.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2019Publication date: March 4, 2021Inventors: Michael Fink, Vladimir Vuskovic, Shimon Or Salant, Deborah Cohen, Asaf Revach, David Kogan, Andrew Callahan, Richard Borovoy, Andrew Richardson, Eran Ofek, Idan Szpektor, Jonathan Berant, Yossi Matias

Publication number: 20200257435Abstract: Example embodiments of the disclosed technology implement dynamically updating user interface elements. A time-varying event occurring between first and second times and occurring in a first location different than a second location of an electronic device can be identified. A request to display information about the time-varying event can be received at a third time. A determination can be made regarding whether the third time is between the first time and the second time. When the third time is determined to be between the first time and the second time, display of a floating user interface element on the display device can be initiated in response to the request. The floating user interface element displays information related to the time-varying event. For example, at least one current state associated with the time-varying event can be displayed in a current state portion of the floating user interface element.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 8, 2019Publication date: August 13, 2020Inventors: Ethan Bar-Yehuda, Tal Cohen, Yonatan Erez, Gidon Ben Uri, Mira Weiss, Alice Durate Scarpa, Yoav Schwartzberg, Yossi Matias, Arkady Zaifman

Patent number: 10560575Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, relating to synthetic call initiations and bailouts. In some implementations, a method includes analyzing, by a call initiating system, a real-time conversation between a first human and the bot during a phone call between the first human on a first end of the phone call and the bot on a second end of the phone call. The call initiating system can determine, based on the analysis of the real-time conversation, whether the phone call should be transitioned from the bot to a second human on the second end of the phone call. In response to determining that the phone call should be transitioned to a second human on the second end of the phone call, the call initiating system transitions the phone call from the bot to the second human.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2017Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Eyal Segalis, Daniel Walevski, Yaniv Leviathan, Yossi Matias
