Abstract

An information processing device includes a controller that, when a user gives an instruction to use a device to a conversation partner on an interface for making a conversation with the conversation partner, switches a display of the conversation partner who is responding, to a display of the device. In a further modification of the invention, the controller may switch the conversation partner who is responding, to the device, in addition to the switch of the display.

Claims (28)

1. An information processing device, configured to support a conversation on an interface in message contents between a user and a plurality of automatic response artificial intelligence (AI)s equipped in a plurality of devices, comprising:

a processor, configured to:

analyze a first message content from the user;

determine a plurality of specific devices of the plurality of devices according to the first message content of the user;

determine a specific linkage function of a plurality of linkage functions linking the plurality of specific devices in a linkage function management table according to a second message content of the user, wherein the plurality of specific devices is executed together according to the specific linkage function, each of the plurality of specific devices has a different specific automatic response AI, and each of the specific automatic response AIs is associated with a different image;

identify specific automatic response AIs of the plurality of specific devices of the plurality of automatic response AIs based on the specific linkage function that has been determined;

replace an image of a default automatic response AI of the interface which has received the first message content and the second message content with an image representing a specific automatic response AI of a specific device which performs the specific linkage function that has been determined; and

change a display of message content of the automatic response AI of the interface who is responding to the user to a display of message content on the specific linkage function, wherein the linkage function management table further includes multiple portions associated with the specific device and the image representing the specific automatic response AI of the specific device further represent a portion of the multiple portions of the specific device which is executing a process.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the image representing the specific automatic response AI of the specific device further represents a state of the specific device is executing a process.

3. The information processing device according to claim 2 , wherein the image representing the specific automatic response AI of the specific device further represent the state of the portion of multiple portions of the specific device which is executing a process.

4. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein when the second message content comprises an instruction to use portions of the specific devices to the automatic response AI of the interface who is responding to the user, the processor is configured to change the display of the message content of the automatic response AI of the interface to a display of message content on a specific linkage function of the portions of the specific devices.

5. The information processing device according to claim 4 , wherein as the display of the message content of the automatic response AI who is responding to the user is changed to the display of the message content on the linkage function of the portions of the specific devices, the processor is configured to change the image of the automatic response AI of the interface who was responding to the user to images of the portions of the specific devices.

6. An information processing device, configured to support a conversation on an interface in message contents between a user and a plurality of automatic response artificial intelligence (AI)s associated with a plurality of functions in a storage device, comprising:

a processor, configured to:

analyze a first message content from the user;

determine a plurality of specific functions of the plurality of functions according to the first message content of the user;

determine a specific linkage function of a plurality of linkage functions linking the plurality of specific functions in a linkage function management table according to a second message content of the user, wherein the plurality of specific functions is executed together according to the specific linkage function, each of the plurality of specific functions has a different specific automatic response AI, and each of the specific automatic response AIs is associated with a different image;

identify specific automatic response AIs of the plurality of specific functions of the plurality of automatic response AIs based on the specific linkage function that has been determined;

replace an image of a default automatic response AI of the interface which has received the first message content and the second message content with an image representing a specific automatic response AI of a specific device which performs the specific linkage function that has been determined; and

change a display of message content of the automatic response AI who is responding to the user to a display of message content on the specific linkage function, wherein the linkage function management table further includes multiple portions associated with the specific device and the image representing the specific automatic response AI of the specific device further represent a portion of the multiple portions of the specific device which is executing a process.

7. The information processing device according to claim 6 , wherein the image representing the specific automatic response AI of the specific device further represents a state of the specific device which is executing a process.

8. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute information processing to support a conversation on an interface in message contents between a user and a plurality of automatic response artificial intelligence (AI)s equipped in a plurality of devices, the information processing comprising:

analyzing a first message content from the user;

determining a plurality of specific devices of the plurality of devices according to the first message content of the user;

determining a specific linkage function of a plurality of linkage functions linking the plurality of specific devices in a linkage function management table according to a second message content of the user, wherein the plurality of specific devices is executed together according to the specific linkage function, each of the plurality of specific devices has a different specific automatic response AI, and each of the specific automatic response AIs is associated with a different image;

identifying specific automatic response AIs of the plurality of specific devices of the plurality of automatic response AIs based on the specific linkage function that has been determined;

replace an image of a default automatic response AI of the interface which has received the first message content and the second message content with an image representing a specific automatic response AI of a specific device which performs the specific linkage function that has been determined; and

changing a display of message content of the automatic response AI of the interface who is responding to the user to a display of message content on the specific linkage function, wherein the linkage function management table further includes multiple portions associated with the specific device and the image representing the specific automatic response AI of the specific device further represent a portion of the multiple portions of the specific device which is executing a process.
