Systems configured according to this disclosure can then use the resulting, personalized, text and/or speech in a spoken dialogue or presentation system to communicate with the user. For example, a system practicing the disclosed method can receive speech from a user, identify the user, and respond to the received speech by applying a personalized natural language generation model. The personalized natural language generation model provides communications which can be specific to the identified user.
