    Abstract: In some implementations, a determination that a first party has spoken a query for a voice-enabled virtual assistant during a voice call between the first party and a second party is made, in response to the determination that the first party has spoken the query for the voice-enabled virtual assistant during the voice call between the first party and the second party, the voice call between the first party and the second party is placed on hold, a determination that the voice-enabled virtual assistant has resolved the query is made, and in response to the determination that the voice-enabled virtual assistant has handled the query, the voice call between the first party and the second party is resumed from hold.
