Galaxy AI is a collection of artificial intelligence (AI) features developed by Samsung Electronics for use in Galaxy-branded mobile devices. First released with the Samsung Galaxy S24 series in January 2024, the system integrates both on-device and cloud-based processing to support features such as language translation, image editing, and content search. These tools operate within various Samsung applications and are intended to assist with everyday tasks. According to Samsung: "In essence, Bixby is like a personal assistant ready to respond to your verbal commands, while Galaxy AI is like a smart companion that's always working to make your device smarter and your life easier."

Devices Galaxy AI was introduced with the Galaxy S24 series in January 2024 and later extended to other Galaxy models through software updates, with functionality varying by model. Initially, AI features were available at no cost on compatible devices from its launch until the end of 2025. In early 2026, Samsung quietly announced that its AI features would continue to be offered at no cost. Future software updates may add Galaxy AI support to additional devices.
Privacy and ethics Galaxy AI processes sensitive data locally on the device to limit external transmission, while cloud-based computing is used selectively for intensive tasks. According to Samsung, user data is not stored or used to train AI models without explicit permission. The company also outlines principles related to fairness, transparency, and accountability in AI development.
