Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can provide interactive application widgets based on their relevance to content that a user may have expressed interest in. The automated assistant can render the application widgets according to an estimated familiarity of the user with the content they expressed interest in. Each application widget can correspond to an application that can be accessed separately from the automated assistant. An application widget can be rendered at a display interface simultaneous to the user accessing the content that served as the basis for rendering the application widget. When the user interacts with the application widget, the automated assistant can communicate selection data to a corresponding application, which can respond with supplemental data that can be rendered at the display interface.

Interactive application widgets rendered with assistant content

Implementations set forth herein relate to incorporating automated assistant suggestions into an interface of a video application, when the video application is rendering video content. The video content—as well as any relevant content, can provide a basis for the automated assistant suggestions. The assistant suggestions can optionally link to one or more additional applications, which can be controlled in response to a user selecting one or more of the automated assistant suggestions. In response to a selection of an assistant suggestion, resulting data generated by another application can be rendered over an interface of the video application, while video content is being rendered and/or otherwise played. This can allow the user to control relevant actions of other applications without completely leaving an interface of the video application, thereby preserving memory and other computational resources that may be consumed when switching between application interfaces.

Generating and/or causing rendering of video playback-based assistant suggestion(s) that link to other application(s)

The present disclosure is directed to automating user interactions in an application. In particular, the computing device can determine, based on the input data, an intent associated with performing an action on the computing device. Additionally, the computing device can invoke, using an application-level assistant component configured to provide an application-level interface on the computing device, execution of an application. Moreover, the computing device can transmit, to a system-level assistant component configured to provide a system-level interface with the computing device, instructions to interface with an actionable component of the application. The instructions can be transmitted using a trusted intermediary component configured to facilitate an interface between the system-level assistant component and the application-level assistant component. Furthermore, the computing device can engage, using the system-level assistant component, the actionable component of the application to perform the action.

Human-in-the-loop voice automation system

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for pairing a speech-enabled device with a display device. A determination may be made to pair a speech-enabled device with a display device of a particular type. A set of display devices that are associated with the speech-enabled device may be identified in response to determining to pair the speech-enabled device with the display device of the particular type. An instruction may be provided to each of the display devices. The instruction may cause the display device to determine (i) whether the display device is of the particular type and (ii) whether the display device and the speech-enabled device both share a local area network and display on the display device an indication regarding pairing with the speech-enabled device.
