Microsoft's AI Copilot slides into Samsung TVs, with eyes on LG

PCWorld

If you've been exhausted by the unstoppable deployment of AI chatbots like Microsoft Copilot across your entire PC, be warned: don't turn on your TV. Samsung said Thursday that it has begun rolling out Copilot to its 2025 lineup of AI-powered TVs, meaning your living room won't be the escape from AI you might have been hoping for. Samsung's smart monitors, including the Samsung Smart Monitor M9 (review) -- which likewise runs on Samsung's Tizen operating system -- will be getting Copilot, too. Samsung originally announced a partnership with Microsoft at CES in January, saying that Copilot will be used for a "wide range of Copilot services, including personalized content recommendations." "Copilot is available on 2025 TV models including, Micro RGB, Neo QLED, OLED, The Frame Pro, The Frame, as well as the M7, M8, and M9 Smart Monitors," Samsung said.

Daily Mail - Science & tech

If you grew up wishing you could taste Bruce Bogtrotter's chocolate cake, you'll be happy to hear that your dream may soon be a reality. Samsung's new televisions will be able to teach you to cook any dish you see at the press of a button. As revealed today at CES in Las Vegas, this is possible thanks to a new AI that'recognizes the food on your screen and provides recipes for bringing it to life'. That means you'll soon be able to bake along with the Great British Bake Off or recreate all the delicious food from movies like Chef. Dubbed'Samsung Food', the tech giant revealed that this futuristic feature would be coming to TVs released this year.


11 tips for Samsung's smart TV software

PCWorld

Although I've been reviewing streaming devices for about a decade now, Samsung TVs have always been a blind spot. I've never owned a Samsung TV until this past week, when I was bitten by the Black Friday OLED bug and installed one in my basement. And while I'd normally prefer an external streaming device over Samsung's built-in smart TV software, the HDMI inputs have already been claimed by my home theater gaming PC, an array of consoles, and a soundbar. Thus I find myself learning to live with Samsung's Tizen-based smart TV software and finding some ways to make the most of it. Here are the tips and tricks that I've found the most useful: Like most streaming platforms, Samsung's top app row is customizable.

Why don't Samsung and LG make streaming boxes?

PCWorld

Not long ago, I thought of smart TV software--especially from the likes of Samsung and LG--as something to ignore. Dedicated streaming devices such as Roku's Streaming Stick and Amazon's Fire TV Stick offered slicker interfaces and better app selections, which made me wonder why TV makers even bothered making subpar software. A funny thing's happened in recent years, though: Smart TV software from LG and Samsung has actually gotten pretty good. Now, I'm wondering why those companies don't take a page from Roku and Amazon, and put their software on external streaming players. To be clear, I don't own any Samsung or LG TVs, so I haven't lived with their software like I have with all the major streaming devices.


Sony, Samsung TVs wow CES crowds with new screen technologies

The Japan Times

NEVADA – It's been a while since a new TV raised any eyebrows, but Sony Corp. has just unveiled a new product that's creating a bit of buzz at the annual Consumer Electronics Show industry gathering in Las Vegas. Sony's XBR-A1E Bravia 4K is the electronics maker's first commercial foray into the niche market for televisions that use OLED, or organic light-emitting diode, technology. While the vivid, power-sipping screens have found their way onto smartphones, the cost of making them has so far limited their appeal for TVs. Only LG Electronics Inc. has made a serious effort to sell OLED TVs. Panasonic Corp. also unveiled an OLED TV at this year's CES.
