Agentic AI will be one of the main pillars of One UI 9.5 for high-end Galaxy phones and tablets, delivered through a system-level feature called Personal Agent Core and accompanied by a more capable Bixby app. Samsung has built this new AI agent to integrate assistants across devices and take Galaxy AI to a deeper, more proactive level.
Unlike traditional voice assistants, Personal Agent Core can manage multi-step workflows and provide proactive follow-ups using natural-language conversations. It is designed as a central system to unify and coordinate AI-driven assistance across the phone.
How One UI 9.5’s Personal Agent Core works
Personal Agent Core offers a unified daily overview by gathering appointments, emails, package deliveries, reservations and payment notices into a single hub, appearing as a natural extension of the existing Now Brief feature. Rather than merely showing a schedule, the assistant can check your calendar, message contacts to arrange meetups, track replies and automatically add confirmed plans to the Calendar app.
Samsung has built connectors for stock One UI and Google apps, and there are specific connectors for Bixby Work, Custom Widget and Daily Brief, enabling the system agent to take actions across both Google and One UI apps and to extract important details.
The agent works across contacts, emails, messages and recorded voice calls to identify meeting commitments and action items from past conversations. Users can use conversational language to adjust device settings, control media playback, manage notes, send emails and messages, and set alarms and reminders. Recorded calls, lectures and meetings can be turned into clean transcripts and actionable summaries.
Personal Agent Core can also run recurring tasks in the background and automatically follow up when an expected email or message arrives, reducing the need to constantly check an inbox. Over time, the system learns a user’s habits, interests, preferences, upcoming plans and use cases to offer increasingly relevant assistance.
