摘要： A dialog device, which is mounted in a vehicle together with a speech output unit for outputting a sound in a compartment of the vehicle, and executes a dialog with a driver of the vehicle, is provided. The dialog device includes: a control circuit that generates a conversational sentence toward the driver, and controls the speech output unit to outputs the conversational sentence; and a state information processing circuit that determines whether a driving load on the driver is high with respect to a road where the vehicle travels. The control circuit sets a forbidden state for forbidding from starting utterance, and sets a permitted state for permitting to start the utterance when the state information processing circuit determines that the driving load is low.

摘要： A dialog device for executing a conversation with a user using a conversational sentence generated from content information is provided. The dialog device includes an information acquisition unit that acquires the content information from an information source, and changes the content information used in generation of the conversational sentence, and continues the conversation with the user. The dialog device sets multiple attribute information pieces with respect to specific content information used in generation of the conversational sentence. The dialog device controls the information acquisition unit to acquire other content information, having at least a part of attribute information pieces equal to the specific content information, as a candidate used in generation of the conversational sentence next to the specific content information.

摘要： A dialog device capable of achieving a conversation satisfactory to a user is provided. The dialog device includes: a conversation execution unit that executes a conversation with a user; a continuation determination unit that determines whether the conversation executed by the conversation execution unit and directed to the user continues; and an utterance control unit that controls the conversation execution unit to be in a standby state in which utterance to the user is suspended when the continuation determination unit determines that the conversation continues and no utterance shows that the user expresses an interest in an information presentation provided by the conversation execution unit.
