  • Patent number: 11776534
    Abstract: Techniques for responding to a user input using a device-executable intent are described. A user may speak, to a device, an input corresponding to a first natural language understanding (NLU) intent executable by a speech processing system. The speech processing system may determine a device type corresponding to the device and, based on the device type, determine a data subscription is required to execute the first NLU intent. Thereafter, the speech processing system may determine a second NLU intent that is executable by the device and that results in the output of similar content to the execution of the first NLU intent. The speech processing system then directs the device to execute the second NLU intent.

  • Publication number: 20230282206
    Abstract: Techniques for a natural language processing (NLP) system to implement more than one assistant are described. The NLP system may receive a natural language input corresponding to more than one user command. The NLP system may respond to a first command, of the natural language input, using a TTS voice of a first NLP system assistant. The NLP system may respond to a second command, of the natural language input, using a TTS voice of a second NLP system assistant.

  • Patent number: 11393477
    Abstract: Techniques for a natural language processing (NLP) system to implement more than one assistant are described. The NLP system may receive a natural language input from a device. The NLP system may also receive one or more signals representing one or more assistants to be implemented with respect to the natural language input. The NLP system may intelligently select an assistant to be invoked with respect to the natural language input. Once the assistant is selected, the NLP system may cause content, output to a user, to have characteristics specific to the assistant.

  • Publication number: 20210090575
    Abstract: Techniques for a natural language processing (NLP) system to implement more than one assistant during a dialog between one or more users and the NLP system are described. The NLP system may receive a first natural language input and associate same with a dialog identifier. The NLP system may output audio, responsive to the first natural language input, in a first NLP system assistant's voice. Thereafter, the NLP system may receive a second natural language input and associate same with the dialog identifier. The NLP system may output audio, responsive to the second natural language input, in a second NLP system assistant's voice.
