    The only use I have for Google Assistant is to call people when I’m in my car, and even then it doesn’t work correctly.

    • “Call <wife’s first name>” -> Calls a business in a neighbouring country which happens to have the same (common) name as my wife.
    • “Call <wife’s first and last name>” -> Calls my wife.
    • “Call <father’s first and last name>” -> Calls another business in the same neighbouring country which name contains my father’s first and last name.
    • “Call <father’s first name>” -> Calls my father.

    Wtf really. Those two businesses must keep wondering who’s that number that keeps calling them at absurd times from another country and never leaves a message, because I can never remember who I must use the full name of…
