Samsung Vision AI Companion: Bringing Conversational AI to Households Worldwide (news.samsung.com)

Samsung announced Vision AI Companion, a conversational, multimodal AI assistant built into its 2025 TVs and monitors that turns the living-room screen into a shared, interactive hub. Activated by a dedicated AI button on the remote, the upgraded Bixby delivers natural two‑way dialogue, contextual follow-ups and visualized results — from recipe videos and movie suggestions to live translation, AI-enhanced gaming, generative wallpaper and automatic picture/audio optimization. The feature works across Live TV, Samsung TV Plus and streaming services, supports 10 languages, and ships on Neo QLED, OLED, QLED step-up, Smart Monitors and The Movingstyle running One UI Tizen with seven years of OS updates. For the AI/ML community the platform is notable as a consumer-grade, multi-agent LLM orchestration: Samsung describes Vision AI Companion as an open multi-AI agent system that combines models including Microsoft Copilot and Perplexity to generate and visualize answers. That implies runtime model selection/ensemble, multimodal rendering, localization and household-level personalization at scale, raising interesting engineering challenges around latency, privacy, safety and evaluation. The rollout highlights a trend toward embedded, screen‑centric multimodal assistants and provides a real-world testbed for research into multi-model coordination, conversational context tracking across users, and deployment trade-offs between cloud and on-device inference.
