Patent number: 12093609Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can selectively determine whether to incorporate a verbatim interpretation of portions spoken utterances into an entry field and/or incorporate synonymous content into the entry field. For instance, a user can be accessing an interface that provides an entry field (e.g., address field) for receiving user input. In order to provide input for entry field, the user can select the entry field and/or access a GUI keyboard to initialize an automated assistant for assisting with filling the entry field. Should the user provide a spoken utterance, the user can elect to provide a spoken utterance that embodies the intended input (e.g., an actual address) or a reference to the intended input (e.g., a name). In response to the spoken utterance, the automated assistant can fill the entry field with the intended input without necessitating further input from the user.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2023Date of Patent: September 17, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Srikanth Pandiri, Luv Kothari, Behshad Behzadi, Zaheed Sabur, Domenico Carbotta, Akshay Kannan, Qi Wang, Gokay Baris Gultekin, Angana Ghosh, Xu Liu, Yang Lu, Steve Cheng
