Facilitating interaction among digital personal assistants

A system to facilitate interaction among digital personal assistants, the system comprising:

• memory;
• and
• one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
• determine whether a first digital personal assistant that is on a first device, which is coupled to the system via a network, is authorized to delegate an operation to a second digital personal assistant that is on a second device, which is coupled to the system via the network, the first digital personal assistant being associated with a first user, the second digital personal assistant being different from the first digital personal assistant and being associated with a second user who is different from the first user, the second device being different from the first device;
• and
• cause the first digital personal assistant that is on the first device, which is coupled to the system via the network, to delegate the operation to the second digital personal assistant that is on the second device, which is coupled to the system via the network, by providing an operation instruction from the system via the network to the first device based at least in part on a determination that the first digital personal assistant that is on the first device, which is coupled to the system via the network, is authorized to delegate the operation to the second digital personal assistant that is on the second device, which is coupled to the system via the network, and further based at least in part on the second user being engaged with the second device.

A method of facilitating interaction among digital personal assistants, the method performed by a system using at least one element that includes at least one of (a) one or more processors, (b) hardware logic, or (c) electrical circuitry, the method comprising:

• determining that a first digital personal assistant that is on a first device, which is coupled to the system via a network, is authorized to delegate an operation to a second digital personal assistant that is on a second device, which is coupled to the system via the network, the first digital personal assistant being associated with a first user, the second digital personal assistant being different from the first digital personal assistant and being associated with a second user who is different from the first user, the second device being different from the first device, wherein the second user is signed-in with a plurality of accounts of the second digital personal assistant, the plurality of accounts including at least a first account and a second account;
• and
• causing the first digital personal assistant that is on the first device, which is coupled to the system via the network, to delegate the operation to the second digital personal assistant that is on the second device, which is coupled to the system via the network, using the at least one element, by providing an operation instruction from the system via the network to the first device based at least in part on determining that the first digital personal assistant that is on the first device, which is coupled to the system via the network, is authorized to delegate the operation to the second digital personal assistant that is on the second device, which is coupled to the system via the network, and further based at least in part on the second user changing from a first context associated with the first account to a second context associated with the second account.
