Mark your calendars, tech enthusiasts! Samsung’s charming Ballie robot is making its grand entrance into the US and South Korea this summer, and it’s packing some serious AI firepower thanks to a partnership with Google Cloud. ๐ Ballie isn’t just any robot; it’s equipped with Google’s Gemini AI model, blending Samsung’s proprietary language models for a truly multimodal experience. Imagine a little buddy that processes voice, audio, and visual data to not only manage your smart home devices but also offer health and styling advice. ๐ฐ
While Samsung is keeping the price tag under wraps for now, the anticipation is real. Remember when Ballie first wowed us back in 2020? It’s come a long way, with the latest iteration stealing the show at CES 2024. Despite a slight delay from last year’s expected launch, the wait is almost over. Get ready to welcome Ballie into your home and let it take your smart living to the next level.
