Abstract
Techniques for computer system-based conversations are described. In an example, a system receives, from a first device, first data corresponding to a first interaction in a conversation that requests a function. The system causes the first device to output a first response to the first interaction. Prior to an execution of the function, the system determines that the conversation is to be paused and causes the first device to output a first indication that the conversation is paused. Upon determining that the conversation is to be resumed, the system causes a second device to output a second indication that the conversation is resumed. The second device can be the same or different from the first device. The system receives, from the second device, second data corresponding to a second interaction in the conversation and causes the execution of the function based at least in part on the second data.
