Samsung brings AI features to its Galaxy Buds

We all know the AI features available on the new Samsung Galaxy S24 phones. The company plans to bring some of these to its Galaxy Buds features. The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, Galaxy Buds 2, and Galaxy Buds FE are getting access to Live Translation and Interpretation through an over-the-air update it's rolling out now. This feature lets you get real-time conversation translation without looking at your phone. And these features work without the internet. You need to download the language packs you need. 

The downside of this feature is it's only available to Galaxy Buds connected to S24 phones. But with Samsung rolling out Galaxy AI to some of its older devices, you'll gain access to them there.
