Google has a call screening functionality on phones already
All stock pixels have this and I also heard that samsungs also have it too. Also, I think Apple will have it in the next update.
The stock Pixel phone app has this. If you don’t use the stock phone app, you can’t use this feature.
Samsung does not have this
I use it and it’s called Bixby. Thought most spam callers don’t make it after the first phrases.
Those already exist.

Some of those spam fighters did this, emulating an old bumbling man who avoided any “yes” like answers that could be malinterpreted as consent to anything, and kept the caller busy for many minutes with pauses, uncommitted “Hmms”, and useless questions. But I doubt that this program is available anywhere.
That sounds like Lenny and it’s awesome.
Jolly Roger Telephone Co has some great ones too.
