1:37
That'll be in the pen comment
1:38
description if you're interested So uh
1:41
let's talk about this Glance AI deal We
1:43
wrote this up and uh basically what it
1:45
is it I'm going to show you the listing
1:47
because it's on the Play Store already
1:48
as well It's basically a piece of
1:51
software or an app that allows you to
1:53
upload a selfie of you and then it will
1:56
show you yourself wearing a bunch of
1:59
different clothing that you might want
2:02
to buy and it will appear on your lock
2:05
screen Now Samsung and Glance say this
2:07
is going to be strictly
2:09
optin It's going to be in the lock
2:10
screen and also you'll be able to get it
2:12
in the Galaxy store There'll be a couple
2:13
places it will be um starting June 4th
2:17
for the S22 S23 S24 and S25 series Now I
2:21
haven't seen it roll out on any of my
2:23
S25 devices S25 Ultras I need to text
2:26
some of my other phones but I am running
2:28
the 1 UI 8 beta on these devices so that
2:30
could be a reason Curious if some of you
2:32
guys have seen it Glance uses Gemini and
2:35
Imagin models to generate lifelike
2:36
images of you in different outfits
2:38
Basically turning you into an
2:39
advertisement for these clothing
2:41
companies which I don't particularly
2:43
like Um but you know that's I don't
2:46
think a lot of people are going to like
2:47
this Um it says "Glance AI is driven by
2:49
core human truth We want to become the
2:50
best versions of ourselves Is the
2:52
awareness of what's possible or access
2:54
to platforms that enable this?" I don't
2:55
know if I'm buying any of that Uh
2:58
Samsung Galaxy Store USA's head said
2:59
"Gance AI is a perfect example of the
3:01
kind of high-quality and unique content
3:02
we strive to deliver by using AI to
3:04
personalize content Shopping directly on
3:06
the lock screen brings a smarter more
3:08
dynamic experience that reflects the
3:10
forwardinking spirit of the Galaxy
3:12
Store." To me it sounds like this is a
3:13
good way to further speed up the death
3:16
of the Galaxy Store but that's a
3:17
personal opinion Um they've been
3:20
experimenting with the lock screen
3:21
content India and Southeast Asia for a
3:22
long time with news and entertainment
3:25
They said it's opt-in and currently free
3:26
with no ads or subscriptions I would
3:28
hope you wouldn't make me have ads in
3:30
addition to basically turning me into an
3:32
ad for clothing Um but their privacy
3:34
policy has some things to be desired
3:36
including they store biometric data for
3:38
like selfies for up to a year which
3:40
means they could potentially turn you
3:41
into an ad and use it on other platforms
3:43
So if you actually look at their
3:44
announcement this is a Glance AI press
3:47
release It says they'll be rolling out
3:49
to all models later this month It is an
3:52
app And so if you scroll down let's go
3:55
down here I'll show you really quickly
3:57
This is an app in the Play Store Not
3:59
that I suggest you should download it
4:00
but I'm just saying it's already
4:01
available It's just not yet integrated
4:04
into One UI and on the lock screen and
4:06
all that stuff But this app actually has
4:08
good reviews I just can't tell if some
4:10
of these potentially could be fake
4:11
reviews You know that's always a
4:13
possibility but it seems like some of
4:15
them for me seem if you read some of
4:17
these reviews they seem a little fake to
4:19
me But anyway that's a that's an that's
4:22
an opinion and you guys can read it and
4:23
judge for yourself Um they they have
4:26
some data policies that they say are
4:27
good but like I said we dug in some of
4:29
the fine print They don't seem so great
4:31
You can see you know their general ideas
4:33
your AI lookbook put you in a bunch of
4:36
different clothes top brands 15 fresh
4:39
looks Not something I would ever use on
4:41
my lock screen but you know there it is
4:43
I'll drop a link below if you guys want
4:44
to see it Now the real question is how
4:46
can you turn this off from the lock
4:47
screen um supposedly it's going to be
4:50
opt in but I do know where it's going to
4:52
appear So if you long press on the lock
4:54
screen go to wallpaper and style and you
4:56
go to change wallpapers If you scroll
4:58
down down here is where they have the
5:01
dynamic lock screen and Samsung global
5:03
goals which are also these ones that
5:05
alternate This is where you're probably
5:07
going to see this service show up the
5:11
Glance AI Now hopefully it will be
5:14
turned off by default as Samsung says
5:16
But if it's not you can come in here and
5:19
make sure this is turned off to none
5:20
which is what I have now And you'll just
5:22
be able to manually change your
5:23
wallpaper like you always can If you go
5:25
to about wallpaper services it does tell
5:27
you kind of what this app does Um and
5:30
this app is something that Samsung uses
5:32
to customize various things on your
5:34
wallpaper and curate different content
5:36
Um there's a couple other places they
5:38
could potentially hide things So when it
5:39
comes out I'll certainly do a full kind
5:41
of tear down of where they embedded this
5:43
in 1 UI And if there's any other things
5:45
you need to turn off to make sure you
5:46
get rid of this cuz I'm imagining a lot
5:48
of people probably don't want it Um I'll
5:50
let you guys know and make another video
5:51
Anyway I'm curious what you guys think
5:52
Is this something you would use do you
5:54
absolutely hate it which I kind of hate
5:56
it I would never use it Um let me know
5:58
