AI Update Email

Did anybody get the email today from LG stating there is a new AI Update available? See screenshot.

I did not get that, but does that mean the oreo update, with the AI camera?

I have been checking since and it says I'm up to date. I may pull my Verizon Sim from the phone and try Wi-Fi only or put my T-Mobile Sim in and see what happens. I'll post results when I have a chance to try.

I'm on Verizon in the US and also didn't get that. Can I ask your carrier and location?

Yeah, I got that email, and I'm on Verizon as well. It doesn't mean Verizon is planning on actually sending out the update in a timely manor (if at all).

I got the email. Downloading a 20 minute update now. (On Verizon)

strangely, no email, but update came automatically. Looks like it's the AI update along with security updates. Camera now says "ai mode" or something along those lines. can't figure out how it works yet, but it's there

 

[DFranch]

Yup, I got it too.about 4 hours after my comment.

a nice surprise for a Friday. may not make it the greatest camera on the market, but a nice little overhaul is certainly a cool thing. I wonder if 8.1 will add anything else

Verizon phone and Sim but living in Germany switching to T-Mobile Sim on and off. I got that email 2 days ago and then last night when going to bed I got the update with the Verizon Sim in and on a German wi-fi network. Haven't played with it yet but I did notice when checking the camera I have the AI update. It'll be interesting to see performance of the new software. Surprised AC hasn't posted anything yet.

No LG email here, but got the software update yesterday.

I've been so busy that I just noticed the 'AI CAM' label at the bottom of my screen - I have a little bit of understanding of what it suppose to do for us, but have no clue what to expect. It's pretty interesting that once I turned on AI, that I get the fade-in-and-out labels appearing on my V30 camera screen telling me stuff like I am looking at 'nature' when pointing the camera at our yard or 'technology'/'computer' when I am pointing at my laptop. It made me <giggle> when I pointed the camera at our dog and the 'mammal' label appeared.

From another thread... Very good starter information on AI and how it can be used:
