This was spotted by Arpan Banerjee, who posted about it both on LinkedIn and X, he wrote, "Google has rolled out a fresh conversion action: "Conversation Started" and shared this screenshot of the report:

Ginny Marvin, the Google Ads Liaison, confirmed this as being new and posted on LinkedIn saying, "‪Yes, confirming that you’ll see this when using message assets. A click on the message extension on your ad results in a message sent, and Google will report a conversation was started."
