With the new Bixby Custom Voice Creator, you can customize Bixby’s text call voice. You can record individual sentences and create an AI-generated copy of your voice and tone for Bixby to analyze. Currently, this feature is available in Korea and is compatible with other Samsung apps besides phone calls.

Intelligent Assitant with Other apps
Bixby can now deliver more seamless continuity and better meet user needs in Samsung Health by introducing new scenes, including playing music based on the type of workout or saving a schedule to the calendar.
Bixby can now better understand the purpose to handle subsequent requests by understanding the context and adding words used earlier in the conversation.
Improved Language Recognition, Processing, and Response
Samsung has also boosted the on-device AI support of Bixby. You can run fundamental commands completely offline like setting a timer, taking a screenshot, or turning on the flashlight.
The Korean tech giant is able to further expand its language offerings and capabilities with advanced AI-based voice dictation by integrating on-device AI with its native apps. The new upgrades to Bixby will be enabled by powerful innovations across Samsung Galaxy devices such as enabling industry-leading performance for on-device AI applications.

“When Samsung first launched Bixby as a voice assistant, it was part of a vision to create a human-to-machine interface that makes life easier and can advance over time with Samsung Galaxy innovation. Today, we introduce updates to build a more intelligent interface that is proactive and adaptive, giving people greater control over their mobile experience.”

Foreign ownership of Samsung Electronics shares reached 52.08 percent as of May 19, as per data from the Korea Exchange. It has rebounded to levels seen over a year ago, driven by mounting expectations of an improvement in semiconductor inventory.
This marks a significant milestone as it is the first time since March 4, 2022, when the rate stood at 52.05 percent, that it has entered the 52 percent range. Last year, the decline in foreign ownership of Samsung was primarily influenced by concerns surrounding an economic slowdown.
The report suggests that foreign investors responded by embarking on a selling spree of Samsung Electronics shares to fall below 50 percent for the first time in six years on June 17 last year, and it came to its lowest point at 49.24 percent on September 29.
Since the beginning of the year, foreign investors have made net purchases of Samsung Elec shares worth a staggering $6.93 billion. This trend has become even more pronounced in recent times, with foreign investors buying 1.29 trillion won worth of shares this month alone.
“As Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix join in production cuts along with Micron, oversupply in the memory market is expected to improve from the third quarter, and the two Korean memory chip makers are expected to benefit from the recovery in market demand starting in the third quarter,” Doh said.
