how to make google assistant ask a question

I am not sure what you are trying to ask but if you are asking how to get your google assistant to ask questions (and act on the replies perhaps?).

You do so by building Google Actions. Google Actions are just like mobile apps but is made available in Google Assistant when a user ask for a particular action via an Invocation such as Ok Google, Talk to Keep Count.

The Google Action called Keep Count would then take over. There in the action you can program it so that the google assistant interact with the user via a series of question and replies.

You can find out how to do Google Action by visiting the Google Assistant developer website at https://developers.google.com/assistant.

Happy to jump on a call if you need more specific directions. I am an expert in the field of Voice Technology. You can also learn from live streams on twitch at twitch.tv/goldzulu.

Hope that helps.

To make Google Assistant ask you a question when triggered externally, you typically need to create a custom Google Action (like an app for Google Assistant). This allows you to program interactive conversations where Google Assistant can ask questions and respond based on your replies.

Key points:

You build these using the Google Assistant developer platform.

The process involves defining triggers, questions, and handling user answers in a conversational flow.

This is done using Google Actions combined with Dialogflow or the Actions SDK.

Without custom development, the default Google Assistant doesn’t proactively ask questions on its own; it responds to user commands.
