Abstract

A method, system, and computer program product for managing communication privacy in a conversation system are provided. The method detects an utterance on a public channel by a user of a computing device. A privacy nature of the utterance is determined. Based on the privacy nature, a classification confidence is determined for the utterance. The method generates a privacy question to be presented to the user based on the privacy nature and the classification confidence. In response to a confirmation response, a privacy channel is established. The method switches from the public channel to the privacy channel.
