Last week, commuters were met with a peculiar sight on the LDP highway as flashes of someone’s search history were leaked on a digital billboard for all to see. Finally, we’re getting some answers on the mystery surrounding the highly personal searches, and no one could’ve expected the reveal.
Yesterday (Monday, 19th May 2025), Samsung Malaysia claimed on their socials that it was them who were responsible for the so-called glitch. The billboard leak was revealed to be an advertisement for their new Gemini Live AI function, paired with an invitation to join their upcoming event.
The post on their socials read, “It was us. Always has been. #DoneClaim“, paired with a video that showed hints that were just under our noses. Looking closely at the ad, the billboard not only showcased someone’s search history but also an error message containing subtle hints leading to Samsung, such as a direct mention of Samsung Malaysia Electronics and a word play on Gemini.
So what was all that for? The ad was a sneaky intro to Samsung’s Gemini Live, which feels more like talking to your best friend than an AI model. The AI assistant is ready for download across all devices, but is readily built into the Samsung Galaxy S25 for ease of use for users. Samsung also invites the public to experience Gemini Live at their Samsung AI TalkSpot at The Starhill from 21st – 27th May 2025.
