Is anyone else frustrated with the Galaxy AI? Here’s my experience:
Text correction:
For the past 5 months, this feature hasn’t worked for me most of the time (and I’m not exaggerating). It just keeps loading forever and doesn’t show any corrections. Does anyone think Samsung’s servers are overloaded? Are they really going to ask us to pay for this in the future? It’s pretty bad. Also, God forbid you write anything that the AI thinks is ‘controversial’. You’ll end up censoring yourself and adding “bad words” to get the message through.
I’d rather just use Deepl than waste my time on this. I speak four languages and need something that actually works. Galaxy AI just doesn’t do it.
Photo editing:
The AI doesn’t remove things the way I want it to. For example, I tried to erase a car from an image, but instead, it put in some weird-looking car. Why is it replacing things rather than removing them? Sometimes, it adds random things that don’t even make sense. The object eraser works much better than the actual AI eraser. Can someone explain this?
And if you try to edit a bikini or swimsuit picture, the AI says it can’t do it because the image is ‘inappropriate’. Really?
Honestly, this is probably the most broken feature Samsung has ever released. I bought an S24 Ultra specifically for this, and I feel really let down.
Edit: Here are some pics in the comments. And thanks for the downvotes! I’ve been using Samsung since the S4 – S4, S6, S7, S9, S10+, S23U, and now the S24U. Some fanboys need to accept that not everything about their favorite brand is perfect. I just want Samsung to do better.
At this point, Samsung should make its AI features free if they want to stay competitive. Especially since the Chinese phone companies are offering free AI.

I agree. Also, when I read your second sentence, I started singing!
AI is mostly a trend, and there are plenty of alternatives to the native features. It only matters if you use AI a lot. If it’s useful to you, paying for it isn’t a big deal. If you find it useful but not essential, let them charge for it. We have so many free options anyway. It only saves a few extra seconds, and your data is still being sold whether it’s native or from a third-party app.
I don’t see the point in paying for a service like that, and I don’t even care for it. The most I’ve used AI for is spell-check. If they lock that behind a paywall, I’ll just do it manually. Not everything needs a subscription.
