US Patent 11341335 Dialog session override policies for assistant systems

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a user input from a client system associated with a user, determining a task based on the user input and a confidence score associated with the task, generating one or more first dialog acts based on a task policy which specifies dialog acts associated with the task, generating one or more second dialog acts based on an override policy responsive to the confidence score being less than a threshold score, wherein the override policy specifies dialog acts that modify dialog acts specified by the task policy; and sending instructions for presenting a response to the user input to the client system, wherein the response is based on one or more of the first dialog acts or the second dialog acts.
