Processor(s) of a client device of a user can receive a telephone call that is initiated by an additional user, and, in response to receiving the telephone call, identify an entity that is associated with the additional user, and determine, based on the entity that is associated with the additional user, whether to (1) fully automate the telephone call, or (2) partially automate the telephone call. In fully automating the telephone call, the processor(s) can cause a chatbot to engage in a corresponding conversation with the additional user and without prompting the user for any input. In partially automating the telephone call, the processor(s) can cause the chatbot to engage in a corresponding conversation with the additional user but with prompting the user for input(s) via suggestion chip(s). In some implementations, the processor(s) can further determine whether to (3) refrain from automating the telephone call entirely.
