Regarding independent claims 1, 13 and 20 , Arazi discloses a method of storing data in a digital assistant, comprising: receiving a configuration request for one or more types of data to be stored in the digital assistant (Figs.4A, 4B & 6 and col. 77, lines 4-10: FIGS. 4A and 4B together form a flow chart illustrating an exemplary process for implementing a user stimulus program in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. The process shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B may begin at step S402. At step S402, personal data system 20 may receive and/or stores identity information associated with a user of one or more of personal user devices 10-1 . . . 10-n.); in response to the configuration request, obtaining configuration information of the one or more types of data (Fig.4A and Fig.6: Obtain and Store Identity Information S402 / Attribute Information S404 / Health Condition Information S406 / Location Information S408 / Movement Information S410), the configuration information comprising at least one of: a field name of the one or more types of data to be stored or a description of the one or more types of data to be stored (Fig.4A: Store Identity Information S402 / Attribute Information S404 / Health Condition Information S406 / Location Information S408 / Movement Information S410; these named categories identify and describe the respective types of stored data) ; receiving a user input for the digital assistant (Fig.5 and Fig.6, step S510: user responses to prompts and/or stimuli are received from personal user devices by personal data system 20); and updating, using the user input, the one or more types of data based on the configuration information (Fig.5, steps S510-S512 and Fig.6: user responses, permissions, identity information, attribute information, and other user information are added to and maintained in user profile data, lifestyle database, and personal data system databases). Regarding claims 2 and 13 , Arazi teaches providing the one or more types of data as interactive context to the digital assistant (Fig.6: user profile data and recorded user device data are provided to personal data system); and determining a response to a user based on the one or more types of data (Fig.4A and Fig.4B: manager module generates stimulus information based on user profile information and event stream information). Regarding claims 3 and 14 , Arazi teaches wherein the configuration information comprises predetermined default values for the one or more types of data (Fig.6: user profile data includes identity, attribute, device, security, medical history, and health information), and wherein determining the response comprises: determining the response based on the predetermined default values (Fig.4A, Fig.4B: manager module generates stimulus information based on user profile information). Regarding claims 4 and 15 , Arazi teaches updating the predetermined default values based on information obtained in an interaction between the digital assistant and the user (Fig.5, steps S510-S512 and Fig.6: user responses, permissions, identity information, attribute information, and other user information are added to and maintained in user profile data, lifestyle database, and personal data system databases). Regarding claims 5 and 16 , Arazi teaches displaying a card of stored data (Fig.5: mobile application software and user interface module provide interactive options to a user), the card presenting a time of the stored data being modified (Fig.6: stored data includes time-stamped sensor data and event streams organized by timestamps). Regarding claims 6 and 17 , Arazi teaches wherein the configuration information is obtained via one or more entries corresponding to the one or more types of data (Fig.4A, steps S402-S410: identity information, attribute information, health condition information, location information, and movement information). Regarding claims 7 and 18 , Arazi teaches in response to receiving the configuration request, displaying, in a first user interface, the one or more entries corresponding to the one or more types of data (Fig.5: mobile application software and user interface module provide interactive options to users). Regarding claim 9 , Arazi teaches wherein the configuration request comprises a request to add a data type (Fig.4A and Fig.6: Obtain and Store Identity Information S402 / Attribute Information S404 / Health Condition Information S406 / Location Information S408 / Movement Information S410). Regarding claim 11 , Arazi teaches wherein the configuration request comprises a request to use a data storage template (Fig.6: user profile data includes identity, attribute, device, security, medical history, and health information) . Allowable Subject Matter 12-151-08 AIA 07-43 12-51-08 Claim s 8, 10, 12 and 19 are objected to as being dependent upon a rejected base claim, but would be allowable if rewritten in independent form including all of the limitations of the base claim and any intervening claims. 13-03-01 AIA The following is a statement of reasons for the indication of allowable subject matter: Claims 8 and 19 identify the distinct features “displaying, in the first user interface, a control for deleting the one or more entries corresponding to the one or more types of data; and in response to receiving a predetermined operation on the control for deleting the one or more entries, deleting one or more entries corresponding to the control", which are not taught or suggested by the prior art of records. Claim 10 identifies the distinct features “wherein receiving the configuration request comprises: displaying, in a first user interface, a control for adding the data type; and receiving a predetermined operation on the control for adding the data type, as the request to add the data type", which are not taught or suggested by the prior art of records. Claim 12 identifies the distinct features “displaying, in a first user interface, a control for activating the data storage template; in response to receiving a predetermined operation on the control for activating the data storage template, displaying, in the first user interface, a display card of the data storage template, wherein receiving the configuration request comprises: receiving a predetermined operation on a control for enabling the data storage template, as the request to use the data storage template, the control enabling the data storage template being displayed in the display card", which are not taught or suggested by the prior art of records. Claims 8, 10, 12 and 19 would be allowable over the prior art of record because the claimed features as mentioned above in combination with other claimed features are not recited or suggested by the prior art of records . Conclusion 07-96 AIA The prior art made of record and not relied upon is considered pertinent to applicant's disclosure. HASSAN et al. (Pub. No.: US 2023/0205904) “ENHANCED SECURITY FEATURES FOR CONTROLLING ACCESS TO SHARED CONTENT AND PRIVATE CONTENT OF A SHARED DOCUMENT” Considered for teachings related to the techniques that provide enhanced security features for controlling access to shared content and private content of a document.
