To effectively shorten the response time to a user's utterance.SOLUTION: An information processor includes a response control part for controlling a response to a user's utterance on the basis of a first utterance interpretation result and a second utterance interpretation result. The first utterance interpretation result is the result of natural language understanding processing of an utterance text generated by automatic voice recognition processing on the basis of the user's utterance and the second utterance interpretation result is an interpretation result obtained on the basis of learning data obtained by learning the first utterance interpretation result and the utterance text used for obtaining the first utterance interpretation result in association with each other. When the second utterance interpretation result is obtained prior to the first utterance interpretation result on the basis of the user's utterance, the response control part controls the response to the user's utterance on the basis of the second utterance interpretation result.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】ユーザの発話に対する応答時間を効果的に短縮する。【解決手段】第１の発話解釈結果と第２の発話解釈結果とに基づいて、ユーザの発話に対する応答を制御する応答制御部、を備え、前記第１の発話解釈結果は、前記ユーザの発話に基づく自動音声認識処理により生成された発話テキストの自然言語理解処理の結果であり、前記第２の発話解釈結果は、前記第１の発話解釈結果と、前記第１の発話解釈結果の取得に用いられた前記発話テキストとを対応付けて学習した学習データに基づいて取得された解釈結果であり、前記応答制御部は、前記ユーザの発話に基づいて前記第２の発話解釈結果が前記第１の発話解釈結果に先んじて取得された場合、前記第２の発話解釈結果に基づいて前記ユーザの発話に対する応答を制御する、情報処理装置が提供される。【選択図】図４
