In some implementations, processor(s) can receive an utterance from a speaker, and determine whether the speaker is a known user of a user device or not a known user of the user device. The user device can be shared by a plurality of known users. Further, the processor(s) can determine whether the utterance corresponds to a personal request or non-personal request. Moreover, and in response to determining that the speaker is not a known user of the user device and in response to determining that the utterance corresponds to a non-personal request, the processor(s) can cause a response to the utterance to be provided for presentation to the speaker at the user device response to the utterance, or can cause an action to be performed by the user device responsive to the utterance.

Multi-user authentication on a device

In some implementations, authentication tokens corresponding to known users of a device are stored on the device. An utterance from a speaker is received. The speaker of the utterance is classified as not a known user of the device. A query that includes the authentication tokens that correspond to known users of the device, a representation of the utterance, and an indication that the speaker was classified as not a known user of the device is provided to the server. A response to the query is received at the device and from the server based on the query.

In some implementations, authentication tokens corresponding to known users of a device are stored on the device. An utterance from a speaker is received. The utterance is classified as spoken by a particular known user of the known users. A query that includes a representation of the utterance and an indication of the particular known user as the speaker is provided using the authentication token of the particular known user.
