Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for enabling indirect interactions between users in an Internet of Things (IoT) environment are provided. A method includes receiving, by a first device, an utterance from a first user, wherein the utterance relates to at least one task that is to be performed by the first user; based on receiving the utterance, identifying, by the first device, one or more second users related to the at least one task; providing, by the first device, an interactable interface to one or more second devices which are located closer to the one or more second users than the first device; receiving, by the first device, one or more inputs corresponding to the at least one task from the one or more second users through the interactable interface; and appending, by the first device, the received one or more inputs to the at least one task.
