Method for outputting text in artificial intelligence virtual assistant service and electronic device for supporting the same

Abstract

According to an embodiment, an electronic device comprises: a memory, a communication module comprising communication circuitry, and a processor operatively connected with the memory and the communication module. The processor is configured to control the electronic device to: obtain a utterance text corresponding to utterance speech, obtain an intent of the utterance text and emotion information based on the utterance speech and the utterance text, obtain a response text for the utterance text based on the intent of the utterance text and the emotion information, obtain a markup language including information about an output unit of text of the response text based on at least one of the intent of the utterance text, the emotion information, or the response text, and add the markup language to the response text and provide the response text. The text output unit is at least one selected from among a phoneme unit, a consonant and vowel unit, a syllable unit, or a word unit. A text output method in an artificial intelligence virtual assistant service of an electronic device may be performed using an artificial intelligence model.
