That's why corporations need us to have/use AI companions. I still don't see a point in me having it. Let me decide if I want it.
I work in IT as support desk. I dread it when I hear the user say I used chatgpt or open AI. Hell, the company I work for tries everything to block that shit because of how bad it is.
Several times a day my phone asks me to turn on google gemini, the only options are install or not now.
I don't want an apple phone, and I can't degoogle my Samsung phone... ironically I'd need a google pixel to put graphine on if I wanted to be fully free of it pestering me as far as I can tell.
EDIT: I'm 99% certain they count on everyone eventually activating it by accident.
You can't do anything with Samsung devices in terms of debloating / rooting / custom ROMs. Samsung has turned that off permanently for US users (Snapdragon chipsets) and will never, ever turn it back on.
No great loss, though, since they're absolute shit at warranty support and QC (looking in particular at their appliances and the fucking S10 line).
It had a 3.5mm jack still and dual sim. It's not great but the price was right...
I'm most annoyed that the international version has a working FM radio, and mine is deactivated though.
My launch S10+ had the hardware radio bug that killed not just LTE data connectivity, but also CDMA. Not only did Samsung not honor the warranty for it, it was just out of the return period, too.
That was the thing that turned me off to Samsung forever (that, and the dead 2TB 980 Pro - not from the firmware bug, but it just flat failed to be recognized no matter what I hooked it into).
I'm like that with MSI components. Had too many failed motherboards over the years. My asus boards always made it to retirement, not a single MSI ever did. I don't really hold being DOA and making me RMA against a company, but failing after a few years is a real sin.
I never get a flagship product, or one at launch so I've had okay luck with my phones hardware reliability/durability. If the back isn't plastic and the screen goes all the way to the edge I'm uninterested. It just really ticks me off that the version in India has all it's features active... and the one in the US doesn't. A14 5g if you are wondering.
