+ //
+ // A conversation is one or more gRPC connections, each consisting of several
+ // streamed requests and responses.
+ // For example, the user says *Add to my shopping list* and the assistant
+ // responds *What do you want to add?*. The sequence of streamed requests and
+ // responses in the first gRPC message could be:
+ //
+ // * ConverseRequest.config
+ // * ConverseRequest.audio_in
+ // * ConverseRequest.audio_in
+ // * ConverseRequest.audio_in
+ // * ConverseRequest.audio_in
+ // * ConverseResponse.event_type.END_OF_UTTERANCE
+ // * ConverseResponse.result.microphone_mode.DIALOG_FOLLOW_ON
+ // * ConverseResponse.audio_out
+ // * ConverseResponse.audio_out
+ // * ConverseResponse.audio_out
+ //
+ // The user then says *bagels* and the assistant responds
+ // *OK, I've added bagels to your shopping list*. This is sent as another gRPC
+ // connection call to the `Converse` method, again with streamed requests and
+ // responses, such as:
+ //
+ // * ConverseRequest.config
+ // * ConverseRequest.audio_in
+ // * ConverseRequest.audio_in
+ // * ConverseRequest.audio_in
+ // * ConverseResponse.event_type.END_OF_UTTERANCE
