Abstract
Implementations set forth herein relate to phasing-out of vehicle computing device versions while ensuring useful responsiveness of any vehicle computing device versions that are still in operation. Certain features of updated computing devices may not be available to prior versions of computing devices because of hardware limitations. The implementations set forth herein eliminate crashes and wasteful data transmissions caused by prior versions of computing devices that have not been, or cannot be, upgraded. A server device can be responsive to a particular intent request provided to a vehicle computing device, despite the intent request being associated with an action that a particular version of the vehicle computing device cannot execute. In response, the server device can elect to provide speech to text data, and/or natural language understanding data, in furtherance of allowing the vehicle computing device to continue leveraging resources at the server device.
