I have a galaxy. I disabled the Galaxy AI. I disabled the Google AI on my phone, and I blocked Google search AI. I disabled Microsoft AI. I think ATT has one that listens in on calls to warn you of a call being a scam, but I haven't figured out how to disable that. Many of my calls are privileged under atty/client privilege, so have someone or something else in on that risks waving that. I want to disable it, but I don't know how. I tried to disable Yahoo's email AI. But, now there is yet more AI for me to disable?

Dear tech companies, please stop shoving AI down my throat. I really don't want it.

At that point I'd just get a dumb phone for calls and a tablet with data only SIM for the rest.

Why not a graphene phone?

Only works on Pixels, and I'd rather not give Google any money.

risks waving that.

Use a dumb phone or thereabouts, they're still around.
