David GerardAI computers aren’t selling because users don’t care
FreddyNOFuck the ai os wave. Do not force that shit into my life. I’m fine with using ai, but ai is not gonna stare over my shoulder. I decide when I use it. Never going back from Linux. Still stuck with a samsung phone but we’ll see
Steven McTowelieEven if Microsoft, Apple, et al, drop the inescapable integrated AI assistant bullshit in their OS’ it’s almost a guarantee that they will forever reside in some hidden background service quietly sending off reports. The temptation for them is too great, and the legal consequences are nil.
Jhexyou are right… Linux for the win!
I switched to GrapheneOS with zero regrets. Mainly because Google is deeply embeded in the Android ecosystem. There was no way i was going to add Samdung AI on top of that mess.
I wanted grapheneOS but it is not compatible with my current cell phone.
Same
Question, do your banking apps etc run ok in the sandbox?
In my case some of my banks will work without the google play services but I have one that requires it. It hasn’t been a problem for me so far. The grapheneOS community forum has some good info on which apps are problematic and workarounds. I’m aware of a couple of banks that don’t work on GOS due to the OS Attestation.
Thanks, appreciate that. Another thing I always fail to remember is that I can just use the website. I really need to switch
Nice. Mine is a work phone so I can’t switch sadly
I have a Samsung and it doesnt have ai features (except for google but i can opt out of it)
Older phone? Bought mine last year and it shipped with ai integrated. It’s in search, image editing, it can even scan any part of the screen to tell what it is and do online searches around it. Pretty sure that thing is on even when I don’t ask it to do something
Nah just mid range phone not flagship
