"In addition to summoning Bixby or Gemini, Galaxy S26 users will be able to call on Perplexity by saying " hey, Plex." The integration of Perplexity into Galaxy AI is just one element of the company's embrace of a "multi-agent ecosystem." Often, people will use different AI agents for different tasks, depending on where their strengths lie. So Samsung is opening up the ability to integrate different agents into the OS."
"Hey, Plex isn't just some transparent version of the app baked into a Galaxy phone to quickly get answers to questions. Perplexity will have access to Samsung Notes, Clock, Gallery, Reminder, and Calendar, as well as select third-party apps, though which ones specifically Samsung didn't say. Samsung seems to believe that people will increasingly use AI to interact with their phones. But, as we've learned, people can develop strong attachments to particular AIs."
Galaxy S26 users will be able to summon Perplexity by saying " hey, Plex" as part of Galaxy AI and a broader multi-agent ecosystem. Samsung will open the OS to integrate different AI agents so users can invoke agents best suited to specific tasks. Perplexity integration will include access to Samsung Notes, Clock, Gallery, Reminder, Calendar, and selected third-party apps. Samsung believes users will increasingly use AI to interact with their phones and may prefer particular agents. Samsung is betting that letting users choose a central agent will differentiate its phones from competitors like Apple and Google. More details are expected at the upcoming Unpacked event.
