Abstract: Systems and processes for proactive assistance based on dialog communication between devices are provided. In one example process, while voice communication between an electronic device and a second electronic device is established, a stream of audio data associated with the second electronic device can be received. In response to detecting a user input, a text representation of speech contained in a portion of the stream of audio data can be generated. The process can determine whether the text representation contains information corresponding to one of a plurality of types of information In response to determining that the text representation contains information corresponding to one of a plurality of types of information, one or more tasks based on the information can be performed.

Abstract: Systems and processes for operating a digital assistant are provided. In accordance with one or more examples, a method includes, at a user device with one or more processors and memory, receiving unstructured natural language information from at least one user. The method also includes, in response to receiving the unstructured natural language information, determining whether event information is present in the unstructured natural language information. The method further includes, in accordance with a determination that event information is present within the unstructured natural language information, determining whether an agreement on an event is present in the unstructured natural language information. The method further includes, in accordance with a determination that an agreement on an event is present, determining an event type of the event and providing an event description based on the event type.

Abstract: Systems and processes for detecting an event within natural language are provided. In one example of a process, unstructured natural language information may be received from at least one user. The presence of event information in the unstructured natural language information may be determined. In accordance with a determination that event information is present within the unstructured natural language information, a pseudo-event entry associated with that event information may be generated.
