Earlier this month, LG-owned mobile carrier LG Uplus launched an AI call as
sistant service called “ixi-O,” which can answer calls on behalf of users, summarize ke
y points, engage in messaging, and analyze conversations to detect potential scam threats.
Since LG no longer makes smartphones, its AI phone, expected to be called the
“Galaxy ixi-O,” will be manufactured exclusively by Samsung for LG. The phone w
ill combine Samsung’s AI features from its “Galaxy AI” line with LG Uplus’s “ixi-O” AI capabilities.
