Abstract
Various embodiments described herein relate to generating and/or employing an expected next prompt to reduce response time for a voice system. In this regard, a candidate audio signal is generated for a predicted prompt to be presented via a user audio device. Additionally, in response to audio response data provided by the user audio device, the predicted prompt is compared to a prompt associated with the audio response data. In response to a determination that the predicted prompt matches the prompt, the candidate audio signal is presented via the user audio device.
