Abstract

An information processing device includes: a control unit that, when a request for change of setting is made by a user through a conversational user interface, controls notification of setting information of a program portion to which the change of setting is to be made; and a change unit that changes the program portion in accordance with the request for the change of setting.

Claims (48)

1 . An information processing device comprising:

a control unit that, when a request for change of setting is made by a user through a conversational user interface, controls notification of setting information of a program portion to which the change of setting is to be made; and

a change unit that changes the program portion in accordance with the request for the change of setting.

2 . An information processing device comprising

a control unit that, when a request for change of setting is made by a user through a conversational user interface, controls display of a graphic representing a program portion to which the change of setting is to be made, the display being notification of setting information of the program portion.

3 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the program portion provides a program for controlling a device, and the device operates according to whether or not the change of setting is possible.

4 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the program portion provides a program for controlling a device, and the control unit further controls display of an image which represents a chatbot associated with the device in the user interface.

5 . The information processing device according to claim 4 ,

wherein when a request for the change of setting is made in exchange of messages between the chatbot and the user in the user interface, the control unit controls notification of setting information of the program portion to which the change of setting is to be made.

6 . The information processing device according to claim 4 ,

wherein when part of the program in an operable unit is completed, the control unit further controls notification of the completion.

7 . The information processing device according to claim 6 ,

wherein the control unit further represents an operation implemented by the part of the program, using an image.

8 . The information processing device according to claim 4 ,

wherein when a function is added by the program, the control unit further represents the function using an image.

9 . The information processing device according to claim 3 ,

wherein when it is not possible for the device to perform a content of the change of setting, the control unit further controls notification of the no possibility.

10 . The information processing device according to claim 3 ,

wherein the control unit further controls notification of a function which is capable of being performed using the device.

11 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the control unit further controls notification of setting information of the program portion in which change in accordance with the request for change of setting has been reflected.

12 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the control unit further controls notification of candidates of processing corresponding to a content of the change of setting.

13 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the control unit further controls notification of candidates for the program portion in which change in accordance with the request for change of setting has been reflected.

14 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein after the change in accordance with the request for change of setting reflects in the program portion, the control unit further compiles the program portion in which the change has been reflected.

15 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein a content of the change of setting is a character string describing processing, and provided by a character string written using a programming language.

16 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein a content of the change of setting is provided by a graphic associated with processing.

17 . The information processing device according to claim 16 ,

wherein the control unit further controls display of candidates for the graphic.

18 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein in accordance with a transmission command of the program portion, the control unit further controls transmission of the program portion to an account different from an account which has issued the transmission command.

19 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the change includes at least one of addition of processing to the program portion and deletion of processing from the program portion.

20 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein when a program portion to which the change of setting is to be made is not identifiable, the control unit further controls notification of a question to for obtaining information from a user for identifying the program portion to which the change of setting is to be made.

21 . The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein when a content of the program portion in which change in accordance with the request for change of setting has been reflected is inconsistent with a content of another program portion which is already set, the control unit further controls execution of alert processing.

22 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

when a request for change of setting is made by a user through a conversational user interface, controlling notification of setting information of a program portion to which the change of setting is to be made; and

changing the program portion in accordance with the request for the change of setting.

23 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising, when a request for change of setting is made by a user through a conversational user interface,

controlling display of a graphic representing the program portion to which the change of setting is to be made, the display being notification of setting information of the program portion.
