In order for that feature to work, you need to give google permission to see who’s calling you and when activated (and possibly even when not activated) listen to the phone conversation. That data is going back to google servers for processing. Gemini is also feeding off of that data. If you’re concerned with the original post regarding WhatsApp data being fed to Gemini, why would you be okay with allowing google to listen in on your phone conversations, all for the small convenience of avoiding spam bots?
If you have voicemail and caller ID, just don’t pickup the call if it isn’t from a known contact.
If you’re also thinking that google isn’t collecting data without your consent, they literally just got fined 300+ million for doing exactly that.
Pixel has a built in feature that screens my calls and sends spammers to a bot. Graphene has no equivalent to this.
