April 26, 2024, TORONTO — Samsung Electronics Canada has announced the inclusion of Canadian French to its list of languages Galaxy AI now supports in addition to the 18 other languages made available earlier this year.[1] Harnessing the power of mobile AI, Samsung is unlocking new ways to communicate for Canadians.

• Chat Assistcan help perfect conversational tones by generating context-aware suggestions to enable communications to sound as they were intended, whether it’s a polite message to a coworker or a short catchy phrase for a social media caption.[4]
• Note Assistcan create AI-generated summaries, pre-formatted templates and cover pages, elevating your day-to-day productivity.[5]
• Transcript Assistuses AI and Speech-to-Text technology to transcribe, summarize and even translate voice recordings.[6]
