Samsung may be preparing to introduce another artificial intelligence (AI)-powered feature later this year, according to a new leak. One tipster revealed that the company is planning to introduce a feature called Video AI in his One UI 6.1.1 update. This could be part of Samsung's Galaxy AI feature suite, which was announced in January and offers features such as Circle to Search, live translation, and interpretation. In particular, Google and Samsung are collaborating on developing new AI capabilities for the Android ecosystem.
According to X (formerly known as Twitter) tipster Ice Universe, the South Korean tech giant is working on a video AI feature that it plans to ship with the One UI 6.1.1 update. The update is believed to be announced at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event, where the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are scheduled to launch. We don't know anything about what this new feature does, but the name does leave some hints.

The tech giant has added a generative AI photo editing feature to the Galaxy S24 series that allows users to resize, delete, or reposition objects in images. However, video editing does not yet have such functionality. Video AI can refer to AI-powered editing tools that can make the same edits to videos as photo editors. Another possibility is AI-driven text-to-video generation, but this technology is in its very early stages and companies such as OpenAI are still working on the Sora model. It is considered unlikely.
However, these are just speculations, and if such a feature is indeed in development, details will only be revealed at the next Galaxy Unpacked event, which is rumored to take place in July. Currently, Samsung users with Galaxy AI-enabled smartphones can use Circle to Search for easy visual searching, Chat Assist to improve typed messages, and Note Assist in the Notes app to summarize, translate, and format text. You can use functions such as .
Earlier this month, Samsung confirmed that all its flagship devices from 2022 onwards will have Galaxy AI features in One UI 6.1 starting in May.
