Patent attributes
Techniques described herein enable a user to interact with an automated assistant and obtain relevant output from the automated assistant without requiring arduous typed input to be provided by the user and/or without requiring the user to provide spoken input that could cause privacy concerns (e.g., if other individuals are nearby). The assistant application can operate in multiple different image conversation modes in which the assistant application is responsive to various objects in a field of view of the camera. The image conversation modes can be suggested to the user when a particular object is detected in the field of view of the camera. When the user selects an image conversation mode, the assistant application can thereafter provide output, for presentation, that is based on the selected image conversation mode and that is based on object(s) captured by image(s) of the camera.
