Systems and methods are provided that use a trained process to reply to a request comprising query data defining a query and context data defining contextual factors for the query from a device. The query is answered by one or more selected APIs of a plurality of APIs that invoke respective services to prepare a response. The trained process determines an execution plan responsive to the query data and the context data and is configured using training to define execution plans comprising selected APIs where a particular API is selected for the plan if it answers at least a portion of the query and the selected APIs together prepare the response optimized for the device according to the context data. The plan is provided to an execution component to execute the plan using the selected APIs and send the response to the requesting device.

Systems and methods for intelligent responses to queries based on trained processes

A system, device and method for enforcing privacy during a communication session with a voice assistant are disclosed. Periodically during the communication session with the voice assistant, sensor data is acquired. The sensor data is processed to determine a number of persons present in an environment of the voice assistant. The communication of private data by the voice assistant is enabled when one person is in the environment and that person is the authorized user. The communication of private data by the voice assistant is disabled when one person is in the environment and that person is not the authorized user. When more than one person is present in the environment of the voice assistant, the communication of private data by the voice assistant may be enabled when the environment of the voice assistant is determined to match the one or more predetermined privacy criteria for a multi-person environment.

System, device and method for enforcing privacy during a communication session with a voice assistant

A computer system and method for managing a data request interface. The system includes a memory associated with the data request interface and coupled to a processor. The memory includes processor-executable instructions of the method for managing the data request interface. The method includes: receiving, from a first client device, a first signal including a primary authorization credential associated with a data record and a second signal including a request to generate an alternate authorization credential for use by a software module. The alternate authorization credential is associated with data retrieval constraints. The method includes generating the alternate authorization credential and configuring the data request interface to impose the data retrieval constraints for constraining data operations on the data record upon receipt of the alternate authorization credential. The method further includes sending, to the first client device or a second client device, a third signal including the alternate authorization credential.

Systems and methods for managing a data request interface

A system, device and method for enforcing privacy during a communication session with a voice assistant are disclosed. In response to a determination that an environment of a first voice assistant device is not private, a first secure communication session between the first voice assistant device and an application server is suspended. In response a determination that one or more other voice assistant devices have been authorized for communication with the application server is made and input to transfer the first secure communication session, a second secure communication session between a second voice assistant device and the application server is initiated. The first secure communication session between the first voice assistant device and the application server is terminated in response to successful initiation of the second secure communication session.

A system, device and method for enforcing privacy during a communication session with a voice assistant are disclosed. A user is authenticated via one or more first criteria in response to a request to initiate a communication session with a voice assistant. Periodically during the communication session with the voice assistant, sensor data is acquired. The sensor data is processed to determine a number of persons present in an environment of the voice assistant via one or more second criteria. The communication of private data by the voice assistant is enabled when one person is in the environment and that person is the authenticated user. The communication of private data by the voice assistant is disabled when one person is in the environment and that person is not the authenticated user. When more than one person is present in the environment of the voice assistant, the communication of private data by the voice assistant is only enabled when the environment of the voice assistant is determined to match the one or more predetermined privacy criteria for a multi-person environment.
