How to make a live model start the conversation?

[Tobsad]

Hello again,
I was wondering if you have any examples where the AI model (like Gemini or ChatGPT) initiates the conversation by sending a welcome or introductory message before the user interacts or sends a voice message or prompt.

"""
gradio 5.22.0
gradio_webrtc 0.0.28
"""

Thanks in advance!
