As Galaxy AI expands to 22 languages, Samsung adds Gujarati as 2nd Indian language after Hindi

Samsung is including Gujarati, the second Indian language after Hindi, to its Galaxy AI platform. The company has also introduced Filipino, bringing the total number of supported languages to 22. The rollout began on October 29 and the platform aims to make Galaxy AI more accessible and useful in regions where English is not the primary language. The newly supported Galaxy AI languages are available for download as language packs from the Settings on supported platforms, including Samsung Galaxy smartphones.

Samsung Galaxy AI is a suite of artificial intelligence features integrated into Samsung Galaxy devices. According to the South Korean electronics maker, these features are designed to make everyday tasks more intuitive, efficient, and personalised.

For example, tools like live translation and chat assistance improve communications; note summarisation and web browsing improve productivity; and capabilities like AI-powered photo and audio editing adds a new dimension to multimedia editing boosting creativity. The features use a combination of on-device and cloud-based processing.

According to Giridhar Jakki, Senior Director and Head of Language Al Team at Samsung R&D Institute India, Bengaluru, the addition of Gujarati to Galaxy AI is a significant milestone in its mission to democratize Al in India, which has a diverse linguistic landscape.

Samsung said the Gujarati and Filipino languages were developed in close collaboration with Samsung Research centres in India and Indonesia. The focus was to make translations sound more natural and reflect local usage. Samsung said that the Galaxy AI now reaches more regions, offering features that make communication and productivity simpler and more intuitive in daily life.
