Here is an infographic explaining the evolution of Bixby
Bixby is Samsung's AI-powered virtual assistant that made its debut on the Galaxy S8/S8+ two years back. Since then, it has gradually become a staple feature in most Galaxy smartphones and even expanded to other product categories such as wearables, tablets, smart TVs, select refrigerators, and more from the company.
Though Bixby is still nowhere as good as the Google Assistant or Amazon's Alexa, Samsung has made some progress in the last couple of years. It made Bixby available in more regions and languages and brought it to more Samsung devices across product categories. It also introduced the Bixby Developer Studio to allow third-party developers to create Bixby capsules and then launched the Bixby Marketplace for users to download these capsules.
At the ongoing Samsung Developer Conference in San Jose, the Korean company announced new Bixby tools and announcements to attract more developers. This includes the introduction of Bixby Templates to enable developers to create new capsules easily by simply choosing from a variety of templates available in the Bixby Developer Studio rather than creating everything from scratch.
Samsung is making the discovery of capsules easier as well through Natural Language Categories, allowing users to search and access capsules without invoking the exact capsule name. Beginning next year, Bixby Marketplace will expand to devices beyond smartphones. To help developers create capsules with consistent user interface designs across its Bixby-powered devices, the company is introducing a new Bixby Views function to the Bixby Developer Studio.
It's clear Samsung is putting a lot of efforts to turn Bixby into a successful AI platform. You can check the below infographic to see the evolution of Bixby so far.
