Samsung is offering Galaxy users a free year of Perplexity Pro AI, worth $200
Samsung has introduced a new offer that could change how Galaxy users access artificial intelligence tools in their devices. If you own a Samsung Galaxy smartphone or tablet and live in the U.S, you can now get a full year of Perplexity Pro, a paid AI assistant subscription valued at $200, at no cost. This move places Perplexity AI, a growing name in the generative AI chatbot space, alongside well-known AI assistants like OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Gemini, Microsoft's Copilot, and xAI's Grok. A user recently spotted this offer on Reddit, where he shared the details on how to claim the free subscription through the Samsung Galaxy Store. To take advantage of this offer, users need to open the Galaxy Store on their device, search for the Perplexity AI app, and download it. Once installed, sign in or create a free account that will automatically unlock the Pro subscription for an entire year without making any payment. If you already have the app, you need to uninstall it and then reinstall it from the Galaxy Store to activate your free Perplexity Pro access. Also read: Snap to launch smart glasses for users in 2026 in challenge to Meta Perplexity AI offers both a free and a paid plan. The free tier allows unlimited basic searches, which may feel sufficient for everyday use, and also limits access to certain advanced features. For instance, Pro search and Deep Search capabilities are restricted to three uses each per day, and users can only search within five files daily. Also read: Google pauses 'Ask Photos' AI Feature to address performance issues The Pro subscription removes these limits by offering unlimited Pro searches, which increases Deep Search usage to 500 times per day, and expands file search capacity to 25 files daily. Subscribers also gain access to multiple large language models, including Sonar, Claude 4.0 Sonnet, GPT-4.1, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Grok 3 Beta, R1 1776, and others, making it suitable for users who depend heavily on AI assistants. Also read: Nintendo sells record 3.5 million Switch 2 consoles in four days This offer from Samsung may be related to its investment in Perplexity, which aims to integrate the AI assistant with Samsung services such as Bixby, Samsung Internet, and future devices like the Galaxy S26 series. However, for Galaxy users, this deal provides a chance to explore advanced AI tools free of charge for a whole year.

The AI inflection point: Why every CXO must act now
In 1999, internet pioneer Vint Cerf equated a single year in the digital world to seven in the real one. Today, artificial intelligence has made even that dizzying pace look AI isn't just another buzzword—it's a potent mix of data, computing muscle, rapid investment, and relentless user growth, accelerating far beyond previous technological leaps. If it feels like change has never come faster, that's because it hasn't. And the numbers back that up. Here are some insights from Mary Meeker's whopping 340 page 'AI Trends Report': Rapid Adoption: The New NormalRemember Tom Cruise's iconic "need for speed" from Top Gun? Consider this: ChatGPT took just 17 months to hit 800 million weekly users, compared to the internet's 23 years to reach similar global ecosystems are booming too. Google's Gemini platform alone saw a staggering five-fold growth in its developer base in a single year. But this surge isn't mere consumer fascination. Enterprises and governments are scaling AI in critical areas—operations, customer engagement, R&D, and even regulatory frameworks. Case in point: The US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) is pushing for complete AI integration across all departments by mid-2025. CXO Takeaway: Rapid adoption means CXOs must proactively integrate AI into core business strategies—not just dabble on the sidelines. Quick experiments and swift deployments are no longer optional, they're survival imperatives. Spending Surges, Monetization Lags Last year, the Big Six tech giants (Apple, NVIDIA, Microsoft, Alphabet, AWS, and Meta) spent a whopping $212 billion on infrastructure—up 63% YoY—mostly directed at AI. Yet, the financial returns aren't matching the investment fervor. OpenAI illustrates this vividly: it generated $3.7 billion last year but spent $5 billion just maintaining operations. Such economics are common in early tech cycles—expensive to build, unclear monetization paths, yet bursting with potential. However, the rapidly declining cost of deploying AI models hints at an imminent inflection. True value might soon shift from the models themselves to the innovative products and business models built atop them. CXO Takeaway: Investment is necessary, but monetization and strategic patience are crucial. CXOs should carefully balance short-term financial realities against the long-term transformative potential of AI-driven initiatives. The New Global Battleground Competition is heating up—and fast. Open-source AI, especially from China, is rapidly closing gaps, with Alibaba's Qwen2.5-Max surpassing GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 on certain performance benchmarks. This race is no longer merely commercial; it's geopolitical. As Mary Meeker's report warns, "AI leadership could beget geopolitical leadership—and not vice versa." CXO Takeaway: CXOs must consider AI not just as a competitive advantage, but as a strategic imperative influencing geopolitical positioning, partnerships, and risk management. Real-World Impact: AI Moves Off Screens AI is swiftly transitioning from digital experimentation to tangible, physical impact. Autonomous taxis now constitute 34% of San Francisco's ride bookings. Kaiser Permanente's doctors have already leveraged AI scribes over 2.5 million times, dramatically reducing paperwork. Yum! Brands, the parent company behind KFC and Pizza Hut, has deployed AI across 25,000 outlets to rethink operations fundamentally. CXO Takeaway: CXOs must now envision AI beyond traditional digitization—rethinking workflows, physical operations, and customer interactions from the ground up. Your People Strategy Is Your AI Strategy AI-related job postings surged by 448%, while non-AI roles fell 9%. This dramatic shift isn't just about hiring—it's a critical leadership imperative for retraining, reorienting, and realigning workforce capabilities. Despite heavy AI spending, adoption remains uneven. A Morgan Stanley survey from 2024, cited in the Meeker report, reveals that although 75% of CMOs are exploring AI, most implementations remain incremental, not transformative. Further underscoring the strategic gap, only half of the S&P 500 companies mention AI during earnings calls—suggesting a significant disconnect at the board level. Even when companies adopt AI, the tendency to limit usage to superficial applications persists. The highest returns come only when businesses fundamentally redesign workflows, reshape teams, and recenter strategies around AI. CXO Takeaway: CXOs must spearhead a deeper cultural and operational shift toward AI-centric thinking. This means investing heavily in training, restructuring teams for AI readiness, and embedding AI into board-level strategy discussions—not treating it as a technology afterthought. In a Nutshell: AI is redefining the rules of speed, strategy, and global competition. For CXOs, this isn't a future scenario—it's happening now. Those who embrace these insights and act decisively will shape their industries; those who delay risk becoming case studies in disruption.
