Yeah, I used to hit the button on the steering wheel and say "call (name)" and it would reliably.. call that person...

Now Gemini took it over and it... Usually calls that person. But sometimes it will inform me that it found a contact by that name in my contacts and disengage as if mission accomplished, sometimes it will do that then ask if I want to call that person, one time it went weird and started speaking what sounded like a reasoning chain (something like: searched for (name) in user contacts, found a match with number 123-456-7890, adding that to the context to continue the conversation).

Note that back in the 2000s, my RAZRv3 could do this task shockingly well. Now thanks to Gemini, it is now less reliable than a 20 year old phone that by necessity did it all on device...
