Samsung about to spend a fortune on AI
 

A billion here and there and soon we are talking about big money

Samsung may be about to write a billion dollar cheque to pick up some artificial intelligence technology.

The billion will not just be used for acquisitions, but also to invest in companies involved in AI.

This is in addition to what Samsung has already bought, including the acquisition of Viv Labs, an AI company from the team behind Apple’s Siri, plus the many references to its own AI assistant coming soon, which we currently know as Bixby.
