    Abstract: A method using multi-assistant warm words includes, for each digital assistant in a group of digital assistants enabled on a multi-assistant device, receiving a respective active set of warm words that each specify a respective action to perform. Based on the respective active set of warm words, the method also includes executing a warm word arbitration routine to enable a final set of warm words for detection, each warm word in the final set of warm words selected from the respective active set of warm words for at least one digital assistant. While the final set of warm words are enabled for detection, the method includes receiving audio data corresponding to an utterance, detecting a warm word from the final set of warm words, and instructing the digital assistant associated with the detected warm word to perform the respective action specified by the detected warm word.

    Abstract: A method includes obtaining proximity information for each of a plurality of assistant-enabled devices within an environment of a user device. Each assistant-enabled device is controllable by an assistant application to perform a respective set of available actions associated with the assistant-enabled device. For each assistant-enabled device, the method also includes determining a proximity score based on the proximity information indicating a proximity estimation of the corresponding assistant-enabled device relative to the user device. The method further includes generating, using the proximity scores determined for the assistant-enabled devices, a ranked list of candidate assistant-enabled devices, and for each corresponding assistant-enabled device in the ranked list, displaying, in a graphical user interface (GUI), a respective set of controls for performing the respective set of actions associated with the corresponding assistant-enabled device.

    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for detecting and suppressing commands in media that may trigger another automated assistant. A method includes: determining, for each of a plurality of automated assistant devices in an environment that are each executing at least one automated assistant, an active capability of the automated assistant device; initiating playback of digital media by an automated assistant; in response to initiating playback, processing the digital media to identify an audio segment in the digital media that, upon playback, is expected to trigger activation of at least one automated assistant executing on at least one of the plurality of automated assistant devices in the environment, based on the active capability of the at least one of the plurality of automated assistant devices; and in response to identifying the audio segment in the digital media, modifying the digital media to suppress the activation of the at least one automated assistant.

    Abstract: Techniques for preserving privacy during turn by turn navigation sessions are provided. An example method includes receiving an indication of a precise origin location and a precise destination location via a navigation application operating on a mobile computing device. The navigation application may generate an indication of a coarse origin region including the precise origin location, and an indication of a coarse destination region including the precise destination location, and transmit the indications of the coarse origin and destination regions to an external navigation server. The navigation application may receive, from the external navigation server, a coarse navigation route from the coarse origin region to the coarse destination region, as well as navigation data associated with the coarse origin and destination regions, based on which the navigation application may generate the private navigation route for the user. The private navigation route may then be provided to the user.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for hotword detection on multiple devices are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, by a first computing device, audio data that corresponds to an utterance. The actions further include determining a first value corresponding to a likelihood that the utterance includes a hotword. The actions further include receiving a second value corresponding to a likelihood that the utterance includes the hotword, the second value being determined by a second computing device. The actions further include comparing the first value and the second value. The actions further include based on comparing the first value to the second value, initiating speech recognition processing on the audio data.
