Abstract

A method includes identifying a cluster of users with a plurality of devices, where each user from the cluster of users is associated with at least one device from the plurality of devices. The method also includes identifying an authorized user from the cluster of users to delegate role assignments to a remaining portion of the cluster of users and receiving, from the authorized user, a first role assignment for a first user from the remaining portion of the cluster of users. In response to receiving, from the first user, an audio command, the method also includes determining whether the first user is authorized to provide the audio command to the intelligent virtual assistant based on the first role assignment. In response to determining the first user is authorized to provide the audio command, the method also includes performing the audio command from the first user.
