This invention describes a digital assistant that processes user requests made through natural language. It works by first deciding if a request is "personal" or not. If it's not personal, the request is sent to an external device, like a server, for processing. However, if the request is determined to be personal, the device handles it internally without sending any data outside, and then provides a result based on that local action. The claims specify this system operates on a client device, sending non-personal requests to a server.
Why it matters: Filed before widespread LLM capabilities. The core challenge of classifying natural language requests and initiating local tasks is now significantly simplified and enhanced by advanced AI models.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
