The latest UI 7 and Android SW upgrade reinstalled and activated Gemini. As an IT security professional, I cannot have any devices that are listening-enabled or have such software installed. How do I uninstall the Gemini software?

You can only disable it in settings.

I did that on my A15 and it still stalks me. Apparently it is part of their operating system, which is google run. I don't want any corporation to have access to my phone for 'AI training' and Samsung better get on this issue.

This is not an acceptable response. It's my phone and if I want Gemini uninstalled it needs to be uninstalled. Is the official answer from Samsung that it can't be?

Yep. Google is part of their operating system. They told me, just now, even if you buy another android phone, there is nothing you can do about it. I might just go with a burner phone or figure out how to use my old 1st gen iphone. They are using your information for AI by having a google based operating system.

I have it disabled but it is still listening. It misinterpreted something it overhead from the TV and blasted out at top volume, "It sounds like they are talking about a severe weather evacuation. To evacuate blah, blah ....."

Quite disconcerting. Be careful what you say, or what is said around you. It is not only listening, it is using AI to decide how to act on what it over hears. It is only logical to assume that since it is listening, in spite of being disabled, that it is also logging keystrokes as well.
