Abstract
Embodiments provide a context-aware digital assistant at multiple user devices participating in a video communication session by using context information from a first user device to determine a digital assistant response at a second user device. In this manner, users participating in the video communication session may interact with the digital assistant during the video communication session as if the digital assistant is another participant in the video communication session. Embodiments further describe automatically determining candidate digital assistant tasks based on a shared transcription of user voice inputs received at user devices participating in a video communication session. In this manner, a digital assistant of a user device participating in a video communication session may proactively determine one or more tasks that a user of the user device may want the digital assistant to perform based on conversations held during the video communication session.
