Samsung Galaxy Unpacked for summer 2024 came and went without much in the way of surprises, but Samsung device owners got some news about upcoming AI features.

Specifically, Samsung is partnering with Google to borrow some of the latter’s AI features. In a blog post posted concurrently with the livestreamed event, Google confirmed that the new Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 will get Circle to Search, with its translation and homework help features intact. Other unspecified Samsung devices will also get these features later this year, per the blog post.

Google features coming to Samsung devices

If you aren’t familiar with Circle to Search, it’s a somewhat recent Google innovation that allows you to, well, draw a circle around something on your screen and have Google’s AI fetch more information about it for you. The Samsung foldables will be able to do that, but that’s not all.

Circle to Search can also do full-screen translation, meaning users can theoretically circle an entire restaurant menu in another language and get the full thing back in their language of choice. There’s also a way for students to circle things like math problems and have AI allegedly help them solve them. Google’s also promising that, later in July, you’ll be able to use Circle to Search for barcodes and QR codes on your screen, too.

Kids, just remember not to make it super obvious that a chat bot helped you with your homework.
