AI Is Interfering with My Phone Calling

I have several contacts in my Pixel 7's Contact app. One of those is named "John's home", another is named "Bob's home", a third is named "Bob's Cell Phone and a fourth is named just plain old "Home" for my home phone number. For the last 3 years I have been calling my home by saying, "Hey Google, call home," and the phone calls my home number without further to do.

Since a week or so ago, when I say "Hey Google, call home" an AI voice asks me which home I want to call. One time after attempting to call home a bunch of stuff popped up, each one having something to do with the word "Home" in it. I can no longer say "Hey Google, call home" without listening to a bunch of AI stuff, so I wind up by dialing the home phone number myself. So much for auto-dialing. I don't use AI, I don't need AI, and I don't want AI.

I bought this phone, it is mine, and I am the boss. I am not stupid and I think it's absolutely absurd having Artificial Intelligence question me about whom I'm calling as though I were some kind of idiot.

How can I prevent AI from interfering with my phone activities?

A better question would be, how can I eliminate all traces of artificial AI from my phone?
