Abstract: Techniques for virtual assistant execution of ambiguous commands is provided. A voice instruction from a user may be received at a virtual assistant. The voice instruction may request the virtual assistant to perform a command. The command that is most likely being requested by the voice instruction from the user is identified. An ordered set of actions to execute when performing the command may be retrieved. Each action of the ordered set of actions may indicate if the action is reversible. Each action of the ordered set of actions may be executed in order until a not reversible action is reached or no further actions are in the ordered set of actions.

Abstract: Techniques for encouraging group discussion participation are provided. A conversational analytics system monitors a discussion within a Push to Talk (PTT) radio talkgroup. A topic of discussion within the PTT radio talkgroup is identified. A participation level of each member of the PTT radio talkgroup is identified. It is determined that a member of the PTT radio talkgroup may have information relevant to the topic of the discussion within the PTT radio talkgroup. It is determined that the participation level of the member determined to have information relevant to the topic of discussion within the PTT radio talkgroup is below a threshold. The member determined to have information relevant to the topic of discussion within the PTT radio talkgroup is prompted to participate in the discussion.
