Crossy Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Android and iPhone updates this year will be dominated by AI—much of it from Google. But this comes with a serious new warning for every user, and it should change how we use our phones. Google issues AI warning for smartphone users The rollercoaster AI smartphone ride is now well underway. It was always going to be the case, that integrating generative AI into the smartphone apps we use most would eclipse last year’s ChatGPT take-up. And here we now are. But not so fast—all this comes with a huge risk to your security and privacy.

It's easy to get a 'clean' looking home screen like that. Go into settings/app to see what is actually installed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And still no WIFI . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Samsung doesn't use AI embedded in Apps? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Samsung doesn't use AI embedded in Apps? Oh dear. 🤪 How will Samsung update my phone with the wifi turned off? Samsung have been trying to download updates ever since I bought it. Not been successful yet. The phone is quite old now but I can still make calls, send SMS's and take photos. That is all I need. Oh - and an alarm for 'beer o'clock' with friends Edited February 13 by Tropicalevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I think that horse has well and truly bolted for most.............. The last paragraph highlights it Quote We can’t have it both ways. Either we value our privacy and the huge strides made in recent years on private browsing, tracking and location sharing. Or AI integrated into mainstream apps is just too cool to live without, and we will use it for everything. If it’s the latter, then this may become the ultimate “be careful what you wish for.” Thanks for bringing that article to people's attention Microsoft trying to ram AI in the form of Copilot or whatever it is called into Windows with updates. If I cannot get rid of it I will definitely be switching over to Linux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand where he is coming from but yes it won't work for everybody. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
