Cover image via In case you missed it, afternoon traffic along the LDP became extra entertaining on 13 May when a digital billboard flashed what looked like someone's personal search history
Some thought it was a prank. Others thought someone legit forgot to log out of their Google account before uploading their slides.
But in a twist of events, we now have a firsthand look from an influencer who was on ground during the incident
In a video recently uploaded by @isawkwardguy on Instagram, he talks about seeing the "weirdest billboard" on the highway with all these search queries.
"What are these questions???" he exclaims in his video, seemingly perplexed.
The local influencer goes on to describe what he saw as "a random like search thingy" with no product logo or description whatsoever.
At this point, viewers are left wondering if it's all a marketing stunt or just an honest mishap.
Curious about the whole thing, @isawkwardguy turns to the side of the screen to ask his "babe" one of the search questions, "What does cat food taste like?"
But instead of someone's voice, we hear a digital voice replying "Bland and slightly metallic". The local influencer proceeds to have a full-on conversation, before the video ends, revealing that @isawkwardguy was talking to none other than Gemini Live!
There has since been an official response addressing the viral billboard incident
Turns out, Samsung was the one behind the mysterious search history billboard and it was all to promote Gemini Live, an AI feature that lets you have real-time conversations with your phone.
