Use the command key which grabs the content of each column as argument (i.e. your commands needs as many arguments as your table has columns):
\defineseparatedlist
  [seplisttalk]
  [separator={;},
   command=\maketalk]
Thanks Wolfgang! That fixes the issues concerning the entries which are text, but now the filename is not understood by the command \maketalk: here is the modified code:

%% begin database-command.tex
\usemodule[database]

\starttext
\startbuffer[pagetalk]
	\starttabulate[|f{\bi}l|p|][before=]%
	\NC Speaker \EQ 
	\goto{{\sc \getvariable{talk}{speakername}}}[fig:\getvariable{talk}{speakername}]
	 \NC\NR
	\NC Title   \EQ \getvariable{talk}{title}    \NC\NR
	\stoptabulate
	\startplacefigure[number=no]
		\externalfigure[\getvariable{talk}{picture}]
	\stopplacefigure
	\page
\stopbuffer

\setvariable{talk}{set}{\getbuffer[pagetalk]}

\define[3]\maketalk{%
	\setvariables[talk]%
		[speakername={#1},
		title={#2},
		picture={#3},
		]}

\defineseparatedlist[seplisttalk]
	[separator={;},
	command=\maketalk]

\startseplisttalk
{Hacker} ; {Up to date hacking} ; {hacker.jpg}
Hacker ; Up to date hacking ; hacker.jpg
\stopseplisttalk

\stoptext
%% end database-command.tex
