Samsung Expands Galaxy AI Ecosystem with New Multi-Agent Capabilities
Samsung Electronics is bolstering its Galaxy AI experience by integrating new AI agents across its device ecosystem, aiming to simplify everyday interactions for users. The company is reinforcing its vision for a rich, open, and integrated multi-agent ecosystem, designed to help users accomplish tasks more naturally with greater choice, flexibility, and control.
Growing Reliance on Multiple AI Agents
Recent research indicates a growing trend of users employing multiple AI agents depending on the task. Nearly 8 in 10 users now rely on more than two types of AI agents as AI becomes increasingly embedded in daily routines [Samsung Newsroom]. In response, Samsung is evolving Galaxy AI to support a wider selection of integrated agents, allowing users to tailor their experience to their specific needs and preferences.
Galaxy AI: System-Level Integration
Galaxy AI is built to operate directly within the device’s operating system, offering deep, framework-level connections. This differs from AI operating within individual apps, as Galaxy AI functions at the system level by understanding user context to facilitate more natural interactions [Samsung Newsroom]. This approach minimizes the need to switch between applications or repeat commands, enabling AI to operate seamlessly in the background.
Perplexity Integration
As part of its multi-agent AI development, Samsung will integrate Perplexity as an additional AI agent on future Galaxy flagship devices. Users can access Perplexity via voice command (“Hey Plex”) or through custom controls, such as a long-press of the side button, for context-specific assistance [Samsung Newsroom]. Perplexity’s AI agent will be integrated into several Samsung apps, including Samsung Notes, Clock, Gallery, Reminder, and Calendar, as well as select third-party applications.
Commitment to an Open AI Ecosystem
“We’ve been committed to building an open and inclusive integrated AI ecosystem that gives users more choice, flexibility and control to get complex tasks done quickly and easily,” said Won-Joon Choi, President, Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Head of the R&D Office, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics [Samsung Newsroom]. Samsung aims to provide experiences accessible and usable by all users through collaboration with trusted partners.
Galaxy AI Expansion and Adoption
Samsung plans to expand Galaxy AI to over 400 million devices by the finish of 2025, doubling its reach from the more than 200 million devices integrated in 2024, beginning with the Galaxy S24 series [AI Magazine]. Company figures indicate that over 70% of Galaxy S25 users actively engage with tools powered by Samsung’s partnership with Google [AI Magazine].
What is Galaxy AI?
Galaxy AI is a suite of photography and productivity features integrated into Samsung phones and tablets [Android Authority]. It allows users to choose between offline and cloud processing for many tasks, leveraging modern phone chips and collaborations with companies like Qualcomm and Google [Android Authority].
Further details regarding device updates and related features will be announced in the future.
