Abstract
Techniques are described herein for enabling the use of 'dynamic' or 'context-specific' hot words to invoke an automated assistant. In various implementations, an automated assistant may be executed in a default listening state at least in part on a user's computing device(s). While in the default listening state, audio data captured by microphone(s) may be monitored for default hot words. Detection of the default hot word(s) transitions of the automated assistant into a speech recognition state. Sensor signal(s) generated by hardware sensor(s) integral with the computing device(s) may be detected and analyzed to determine an attribute of the user. Based on the analysis, the automated assistant may transition into an enhanced listening state in which the audio data may be monitored for enhanced hot word(s). Detection of enhanced hot word(s) triggers the automated assistant to perform a responsive action without requiring detection of default hot word(s).
