It is expected that the Samsung Galaxy S25 will feature a significant improvement in Bixby's artificial intelligence.
An update driven by large language models (LLM).
Samsung is rolling out a notable update for Bixby, its virtual assistant, which could be launched globally alongside the Galaxy S25 in January 2025. This new Bixby will feature support for Large Language Models (LLM), bringing it on par with other generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Google Gemini.
It has been mentioned that this update has already been discreetly implemented in China, and users in other regions are expected to gain access to it early next year. This launch coincides with the introduction of the Galaxy S25 series and the new version of One UI 7, which is based on Android 15 and is currently in beta testing.
Among the standout features of this update is Bixby's ability to provide more comprehensive responses and generate images, which will surely significantly expand its capabilities. A well-known leaker has highlighted that this new version of Bixby will be presented as the main attraction of the Galaxy S25 series.
Samsung has been integrating various AI features into its devices throughout this year, such as the Sketch to Image option and the Circle to Search functionality. With the introduction of LLM support, the performance of Samsung phones is expected to improve significantly compared to other options on the market.
As competition among virtual assistants intensifies, the improvements in Bixby pose an interesting challenge for Google Gemini, which has already received similar updates to its own assistant.
More details about this enhanced version of Bixby are expected to be provided in the coming months. Meanwhile, Apple is also advancing with the development of its own AI features through iOS updates.
