Summary
Mountain View hosted Samsung’s Sept. 18 Tech Forum, where executives said the company’s AI plans extend beyond Galaxy devices into connected experiences and robotics.
CTO Janghyun Yoon framed AI and robotics as a shared future technology paradigm, with Samsung aiming for systems that understand and respond to users across multiple environments.
About 80 technology professionals joined leaders including TM Roh, Wonjin Lee and Won-joon Choi at Samsung Research America to discuss that direction with global developers.
The strategy builds on Samsung’s CES 2026 “Your Companion to AI Living” vision, which uses SmartThings to link mobile devices, appliances, displays and services into one ecosystem.
Samsung’s latest message points to robotics as the next layer of that ecosystem, extending AI from digital services into physical assistance at home, work and other connected spaces.
With Samsung freezing RAM upgrades for the Galaxy S27, could this unexpected hardware stagnation secretly throttle their ambitious new AI ecosystem?
Why is Samsung gambling billions on unproven 12-inch OLEDoS technology when manufacturing yields could completely derail their future XR display dominance?
Will Apple's rigid privacy shields cost lives in South Korea, or is their refusal to share emergency locations a necessary digital defense?
