Remember the billboard displays that went viral last week after showing random Google search results? (“Who is M Nasir?” “Why body itchy after thrifting?”) Well, it turns out there’s a smarter, faster, and more fun way to get answers to even the most random questions without typing them out!

The billboard incident wouldn’t have happened if the admin knew to #TalkNotType using Samsung’s Gemini Live on the Galaxy S25 Series instead!

We all have burning questions for our search engines, but even typing them out can sometimes be a hassle.

That’s why, after the viral DOOH (digital out-of-home) billboards flashed random Google searches nationwide, social media influencer J (@isawkwardguy) decided to put a spin on it with Gemini. In a now-viral video, he pondered one of the questions displayed on the billboard: “What does cat food taste like?”, and asked his “babe” (read: his Samsung Galaxy S25) the question out loud.

Then, lo and behold, the built-in Gemini Live responded with a detailed explanation (“Bland and slightly metallic”) without having anything typed out! He even followed up with more questions and had a full-on conversation with the AI.  “Gemini Live is my baby!” he said, proving that voice AI is the future of search!
