Samsung provides clarification regarding Samsung Health data use for AI training | Infinium-tech

Last week, some Samsung Health users reported seeing a notice when opening the app, asking them to consent to the use of their health data for AI training and modeling. While users had the option to withdraw consent, the notice stated that doing so would delete their health data and they would be unable to sync it with their Samsung account. Samsung faced criticism from users for this and has now published an in-app notice clarifying the matter.

Samsung says that the health data collected for AI training and modeling is separate from the data used to provide Samsung Health services, and if the user withdraws consent, the data collected separately for AI development purposes will be deleted and no longer used.

Samsung also assured that existing health data stored for use of Samsung Health services will remain unaffected and will not be deleted. Additionally, the Korean brand said it is improving the text in the notices so that the information is presented more clearly and accurately to users.
