LG, Samsung bring Microsoft Copilot to their 2025 TV lineups
06 Jan 2025

LG and Samsung have unveiled their 2025 smart TV models at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).

A key feature of these new models is the integration of Microsoft's Copilot AI assistant.

Both companies are capitalizing on the growing trend of artificial intelligence (AI), with dedicated AI sections on their smart TVs that provide a shortcut to a Copilot web app.

LG is bringing a full-fledged AI section into its new TVs and rebranding its remote as "AI Remote." This is part of LG's plan to capitalize on the capabilities of large language models (LLMs).

The company describes Copilot access as a way for users to "efficiently find and organize complex information using contextual cues."

However, the precise capabilities of Copilot on LG's new TVs are not clear yet.

Samsung has also introduced its own Vision AI brand for its AI-powered TV features this year.

The new capabilities include AI upscaling, Auto HDR Remastering, and Adaptive Sound Pro.

Plus, a new AI button on the remote has been added to access unique capabilities like recognizing food on a screen or home security functions analyzing video feeds from smart cameras.
