• Deep OS Integration: Expands Perplexity’s role as the engine behind Bixby’s search and reasoning

• Galaxy S26 Boost: Ships pre‑loaded as one of the device’s core assistants next to Gemini

Impact

Perplexity is now a key component in Samsung's global device ecosystem, enhancing search, reasoning, and on-device assistance for over a billion users, and serving as the default AI interface for the Galaxy lineup.

The AI your stack deployed is losing customers.

You shipped it. It works. Tickets are resolving. So why are customers leaving?

Gladly's 2026 Customer Expectations Report uncovered a gap that most CIOs don't see until it's too late: 88% of customers get their issues resolved through AI — but only 22% prefer that company afterward. Resolution without loyalty is just churn on a delay.

The difference isn't the model. It's the architecture. How AI is integrated into the customer journey, what it hands off and when, and whether the system is designed to build relationships or just close tickets.
