Google announced Smart Reply for Hangouts Chat in December 2018. The feature suggested short responses to messages, similar to Smart Reply in Gmail. Hangouts Chat was the G Suite service that became Google Chat. Google moved remaining users of classic Hangouts to Google Chat and retired classic Hangouts in November 2022.

The image below shows how suggested replies appeared in the original Hangouts Chat interface.
