Abstract

Mitigating latency in guiding a user, during an interaction between the user and a computing system, in selecting a subset of item(s), from a superset of candidate items, and causing performance of further action(s) based on the selected subset of item(s). In guiding a user in selecting the subset of items, various implementations enable the user to provide only spoken input(s) in selecting the subset of item(s), and provide visual output(s) that are responsive to the spoken input(s) and that guide the user in selecting the item(s). In some of those various implementations, there is not any (or there is only de minimis) audible spoken synthesized spoken output rendered by the computing system in guiding the user in selecting the subset of item(s).
