Apparently these apps don't record human speech, but the capability's there.

Not quite targetting based on conversations but still creepy.
I think the targetting based on voice conversations is maybe a bit overblown, but text conversations through messenger or whatsapp, I have no doubt about. There's been more than one time I've started getting targetted ads based on text conversations i've had through those apps.
But, I also get targetted ads based on my emails, things I search for on reddit, youtube videos I watch or search for, websites I browse, local ones based on my location, and a myriad of other things that are nearly as bad as my conversations being recorded.
