    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for interactive assistant modules to safely access and provide restricted content in group contexts. In various implementations, a dialog between a first individual and an interactive assistant module may be determined to be sensorially perceivable by at least a second individual. Restricted content that is to be automatically incorporated into the dialog by the interactive assistant module may be identified. In various implementations, access to the restricted content may be controlled by the first individual. In various implementations, the restricted content may be conditionally incorporated into the dialog in response to a determination that the second individual is authorized to perceive the restricted content.

    Abstract: Some implementations are directed to translating chatspeak to a normalized form, where the chatspeak is included in natural language input formulated by a user via a user interface input device of a computing device—such as input provided by the user to an automated assistant. The normalized form of the chatspeak may be utilized by the automated assistant in determining reply content that is responsive to the natural language input, and that reply content may be presented to the user via one or more user interface output devices of the computing device of the user. Some implementations are additionally and/or alternatively directed to providing, for presentation to a user, natural language output that includes chatspeak in lieu of a normalized form of the chatspeak, based at least in part on a “chatspeak measure” that is determined based on past usage of chatspeak by the user and/or by additional users.

    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for chatbots to achieve greater social grace by tracking users' states and providing corresponding dialog. In various implementations, input may be received from a user at a client device operating a chatbot, e.g., during a first session between the user and the chatbot. The input may be semantically processed to determine a state expressed by the user to the chatbot. An indication of the state expressed by the user may be stored in memory for future use by the chatbot. It may then be determined, e.g., by the chatbot based on various signals, that a second session between the user and the chatbot is underway. In various implementations, as part of the second session, the chatbot may output a statement formed from a plurality of candidate words, phrases, and/or statements based on the stored indication of the state expressed by the user.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for automatically augmenting message exchange threads based on a detected tone of messages exchanged between participants. In various implementations, a message contributed to a message exchange thread involving one or more message exchange clients by a participant may be determined. In various implementations, an idle chatter score associated with the message may be calculated. In various implementations, either a conversational response to the message or content responsive to a search query generated based on the message may be selectively incorporated into the message exchange thread based at least in part on the idle chatter score. In some implementations, a search query suitability score associated with the message may also be calculated.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer readable media related to interaction between a user and an automated assistant during a dialog between the user and the automated assistant. Some implementations are directed to adapting a graphical and/or audible presentation of search results provided by the automated assistant for presentation to the user. The adaptation may be in response to attribute(s), of one or more of the search results, referenced in spoken and/or typed textual input provided by the user during the dialog. Some of those implementations may enable a user to provide textual input to navigate the search results within the dialog and within resource and/or interface constraints associated with the dialog. Some of those implementations may additionally and/or alternatively enable adapting, based on textual input provided by a user to the automated assistant, when and/or whether search results having certain attributes are provided to the user by the automated assistant.
