The partnership between the two companies is stronger than ever, with Galaxy AI deeply intertwined with Google Gemini on S25 devices.
Kim added, “With this new visual capacity brings the Galaxy S25 series next generation AI experiences to life and sets new standards for how users engage in the world through their devices.”
I’m glad to try Visual AI as I definitely love the ability to ask Gemini questions about what’s on my screen via text on Android.
Adding this functionality to Gemini Live will make S25 devices feel even more vivid, taking a huge leap towards a future where we all have an AI voice assistant in our pockets capable of managing the worldly elements of life.
