12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the set of predefined actions is associated with a set of applications on the electronic device, and further comprising: in response to determining that the relevant domain is not associated with any predefined action of the set of predefined actions: determining that the data content is associated with a second application of the electronic device, wherein the set of applications does not include the second application; and processing the data content using the second application to obtain the result.
1. A method for reducing response latency of intelligent automated assistants, the method comprising: at an electronic device: receiving, from a user, a speech input containing a user request; transmitting, to a server, a representation of the speech input; receiving, from the server, a domain signal defining a relevant domain of an actionable intent inferred from the user request; determining whether the relevant domain is associated with a predefined action of a set of predefined actions supported by the electronic device; in response to determining that the relevant domain is associated with a predefined action on the electronic device, performing the predefined action; after at least partially performing the predefined action, receiving, from the server, data content relevant to satisfying the user request, wherein the data content is generated according to an executed task flow corresponding to the actionable intent, and wherein performing the predefined action at least partially prepares the electronic device to process the received data content; and outputting a result based on the data content to at least partially satisfy the user request.
