Code In Samsung Internet Browser V22.0.0.54 Hints ChatGPT Integration

Samsung may be trying to integrate ChatGPT, a powerful Generative AI language model, into its Samsung Internet Browser app, revealed APK teardown.

Some reports suggest Samsung's web browser would provide users with a convenient way to use ChatGPT without heading over to the ChatGPT website. The code also hints at ChatGPT settings and the ability to select different ChatGPT models.

Is Samsung Moving Away From Google And Its Bard AI?

Samsung has been actively exploring ways to incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) into its smartphones. Multiple reports had suggested that Samsung was considering switching from Google Search to Microsoft Bing for its AI features. Although Samsung's move caused some panic at Google, the South Korean company eventually decided to stick with Google Search.

At some point in time, Samsung could have considered incorporating Google Bard AI into its web browser. However, as evident from the APK teardown, Samsung has opted for Microsoft and OpenAI's ChatGPT. Needless to say, this does not bode well for Google or its Bard AI.

Google has been making steady progress with its own take on Generative AI. Incidentally, even Twitter owner Elon Musk has launched xAI, a new startup that will develop AGI (Artificial General Intelligence).

Simply put, there are multiple tech giants that are deeply involved with Generative AI platforms. However, Samsung has opted for OpenAI's ChatGPT, presumably because it is the fastest-growing and most popular Generative AI, which is rapidly offering new features, APIs, and subscriptions.
