1. A method comprising:
detecting a phrase based on a real-time transcription and discussion points of a conference;
determining a topic based on keywords within a neighboring word range of the phrase;
determining that the topic of the conference is unrelated to the discussion points of the conference by processing the real-time transcription using a machine learning (ML) model trained for contextual awareness;
transmitting a prompt to participants related to the topic to confirm that the topic is unrelated to the discussion points;
generating a future discussion point based on the topic responsive to receiving one or more confirmation responses; and
adding a future conference including the future discussion point to respective calendars of the participants related to the topic.
