Samsung’s Bixby voice assistant was supposed to be one of the highlights of the Galaxy S8 smartphone. However, it appears as if the voice assistant has been delayed yet again. According to reports coming in from the Wall Street Journal, Bixby will not be launching for a few years yet. The assistant is having trouble comprehending English grammar and syntax, which is kind of strange considering that it is a virtual assistant that has already been launched with a lot of fanfare.
Recent internal tests of the service have revealed the voice-activated assistant is struggling to comprehend English syntax and grammar, one of the people said.
Bixby has a big role to play in Samsung’s overall scheme of things. The company even gave it a separate button on the Galaxy S8 device. However, it will be some time before the assistant sees the light of the day. That much at least, has been confirmed according to the new reports that are now coming in.
As far as availability is concerned, Samsung has said that the assistant will launch later in the spring.
