This creates a false impression that all Galaxy phones will have access to this feature. Secondly, the author states that Samsung announced an update for its One UI 6.1 with Galaxy AI software, when in fact they did not announce any new features or updates related to 'Galaxy AI'.

Lastly, the author states that Samsung will begin rolling out its major One UI 6.1 update starting Thursday (Mar. 28), but does not provide any information on when or if this is a global rollout.
