Samsung is adding Perplexity to Galaxy AI
Summary
Samsung is integrating Perplexity, an AI search tool, into Galaxy AI on its S26 phones, allowing users to activate it by saying 'hey, Plex.' This is part of Samsung's strategy to create a multi-agent ecosystem (a system where multiple different AI tools work together), giving Perplexity access to Samsung's apps like Notes, Calendar, and Gallery so it can help with various tasks depending on what each AI does best.
