==DETECTING AND SUPPRESSING COMMANDS IN MEDIA THAT MAY TRIGGER ANOTHER AUTOMATED ASSISTANT - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18100424 titled 'DETECTING AND SUPPRESSING COMMANDS IN MEDIA THAT MAY TRIGGER ANOTHER AUTOMATED ASSISTANT

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes techniques for detecting and suppressing commands in media that may trigger another automated assistant. Here are the key points:

* The method involves determining the capabilities of each automated assistant device in an environment.
* When digital media is played, the method identifies audio segments that are expected to activate automated assistants based on their capabilities.
* The identified audio segments are modified to suppress the activation of the automated assistants.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Preventing unintended activations of automated assistants by media content.
* Enhancing user privacy by suppressing automated assistant activations triggered by media.
* Improving the user experience by avoiding interference between multiple automated assistants.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Unintended activations of automated assistants can be disruptive and unwanted.
* Media content may unintentionally trigger multiple automated assistants, causing interference and confusion.
* User privacy can be compromised if automated assistants are activated without explicit user interaction.

Benefits of this technology:

* Users can enjoy media content without worrying about unintended automated assistant activations.
* Interference between multiple automated assistants can be minimized, providing a smoother user experience.
* User privacy is enhanced by suppressing automated assistant activations triggered by media.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Techniques are described herein for detecting and suppressing commands in media that may trigger another automated assistant. A method includes: determining, for each of a plurality of automated assistant devices in an environment that are each executing at least one automated assistant, an active capability of the automated assistant device; initiating playback of digital media by an automated assistant; in response to initiating playback, processing the digital media to identify an audio segment in the digital media that, upon playback, is expected to trigger activation of at least one automated assistant executing on at least one of the plurality of automated assistant devices in the environment, based on the active capability of the at least one of the plurality of automated assistant devices; and in response to identifying the audio segment in the digital media, modifying the digital media to suppress the activation of the at least one automated assistant.
