Samsung has announced the release of the side button trigger for Gemini on Galaxy A-series smartphones. “Select Galaxy A series devices will soon support AI assistant activation through the side button, bringing a fan-favorite feature from the Galaxy S series to more users and furthering Samsung’s vision of democratizing the latest AI experiences,” said Samsung.
With this update, the side button trigger for Gemini on Galaxy A-series smartphones will be enabled where users will be able to access the AI assistant simply by pressing and holding the side button. Samsung introduced Awesome Intelligence on the latest Galaxy A series – Galaxy A56 5G (review), Galaxy A36 5G (review) and Galaxy A26 5G (review), which included features like Object Eraser and Webpage dictation.
“With easier access to Gemini, users can effortlessly check their schedule, find nearby restaurants or get recommendations for birthday gifts using voice commands. They can also carry out tasks across apps with just a single command – like finding a dinner spot on Google Maps and sending the address to a friend through Messages – spanning Samsung, Google and select third-party apps,” said Samsung.
Until now, the button could either be used to trigger Bixby or the Power off menu when pressing and holding, which now changes for the Galaxy A-series devices mentioned above.
Meanwhile, earlier this month, Samsung announced a limited period price drop on its latest flagship, the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The special offer, valid until today, April 30, 2025, allows consumers to avail Galaxy S25 Ultra at its lowest ever net effective price of Rs 1,17,999. Note that the offer is available only on Galaxy S25 Ultra in Titanium Silverblue shade for the base 12GB + 256GB model. Other variants and colours are still priced same as before.
Meta has announced the launch of the Meta AI App which helps users experience personal AI designed around voice conversations with Meta AI inside a standalone app. This release is the first version and the company says it will be gathering feedback to make improvements in future versions.
“Meta AI is built to get to know you, so its answers are more helpful. It’s easy to talk to, so it’s more seamless and natural to interact with. It’s more social, so it can show you things from the people and places you care about. And you can use Meta AI’s voice features while multitasking and doing other things on your device, with a visible icon to let you know when the microphone is in use,” said Meta in a blog post.
Meta says it has improved its underlying model with Llama 4 to bring you responses that feel more personal and relevant, and more conversational in tone. And the app integrates with other Meta AI features like image generation and editing, which can now all be done through a voice or text conversation with your AI assistant.
Meta has also included a voice demo built with full-duplex speech technology, that you can toggle on and off to test. This technology will deliver a more natural voice experience trained on conversational dialogue, so the AI is generating voice directly instead of reading written responses.
It doesn’t have access to the web or real-time information, though. Meta notes that users may encounter technical issues or inconsistencies as the feature has been given to the users on an experimental basis.
Voice conversations, including the full duplex demo, are available in the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand to start.
Next, you can tell Meta AI to remember certain things about you, and it can also pick up important details based on context. Your Meta AI assistant also delivers more relevant answers to your questions by drawing on information you’ve already chosen to share on Meta products, like your profile, and content you like or engage with.
Personalized responses are available today in the US and Canada. And if you’ve added your Facebook and Instagram accounts to the same Accounts Center, Meta AI can draw from both to provide an even stronger personalized experience for you.
The Meta AI app also includes a Discover feed, a place to share and explore how others are using AI. You can see the best prompts people are sharing, or remix them to make them your own. And as always, you’re in control: nothing is shared to your feed unless you choose to post it.
Further, the company is also merging the new Meta AI app with the Meta View companion app for Ray-Ban Meta glasses, and in some countries you’ll be able to switch from interacting with Meta AI on your glasses to the app. You’ll be able to start a conversation on your glasses, then access it in your history tab from the app or web to pick up where you left off. And you can chat between the app and the web bidirectionally (you cannot start in the app or on the web and pick up where you left off on your glasses).
Existing Meta View users can continue to manage their AI glasses from the Meta AI app – once the app updates, all your paired devices, settings and media will automatically transfer over to the new Devices tab.
Meta AI on the web is also getting an upgrade. It comes with voice interactions and the new Discover feed, just like you see in the app. The web interface has been optimized for larger screens and desktop workflows and includes an improved image generation experience, with more presets and new options for modifying style, mood, lighting and colors.
Meta is also testing a rich document editor in select countries, one that you can use to generate documents full of text and images and then export those documents as PDFs. And it is also testing the ability to import documents for Meta AI to analyze and understand.
Global supplier of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered fleet and driver safety solutions Netradyne is counting on technology to address road accidents and enhance driver behavior as it gets ready to grow its footprint to 15 nations by 2026.
Headquartered in San Diego, the company also has offices in Bangalore and San Francisco. It intends to enter Japan and Spain in 2025 and expand its presence to Ireland, France, and Italy the following year. It operates commercially in ten nations, including the United States, India, Canada, Mexico, Germany, the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Australia, and New Zealand.
“As road safety becomes a global priority, our AI-driven solutions offer a compelling case for adoption,” said Durgadutt Nedungadi, Senior Vice President, EMEA and APAC, Netradyne. “India remains a critical R&D hub, playing a central role in developing technology that has a global impact.”
Netradyne joined the Unicorn club following a $90 million Series D fundraising earlier this year that raised its value to $1.34 billion. It now employs over 650 people in India and about 850 globally.
Growth Plan
Netradyne’s growth strategy is to expand quickly without significant infrastructure expenditures. The firm already operates in various foreign marketplaces using remote staff, hence guaranteeing agility and cost-effectiveness. In Europe, beyond the five upcoming markets, the company is also eyeing other regions for growth opportunities.
The expansion comes amid growing global concerns about road safety, with governments and private players seeking innovative technologies to prevent accidents and improve transportation standards.
How Driver•i Functions
Netradyne’s core product is “Driver•i,” a complex fleet safety system. Driver•i analyzes 100% of driving time using artificial intelligence and EDGE computing, hence providing real-time feedback and in-depth insights on driver behaviour. The system, equipped with sophisticated cameras and sensors, identifies situations including tiredness, inattentive driving, speeding, and severe braking.
Driver’i offers actionable insights by means of contextual data analysis—road conditions, traffic patterns, and driver behaviors among other things—thereby enabling fleet management to properly coach drivers. Unlike conventional dashcams that just capture events, Driver•i runs proactively, providing predictive analytics to stop accidents before they happen.
In the event of false claims, Driver.i’s real-time video intelligence helps to clear drivers and increases operational transparency for fleet operators. The platform’s edge computing feature reduces Latency and improves responsiveness by processing critical tasks locally on the device.
Eminent Transit New Partnership
Further strengthening its footprint in India, Netradyne has announced a partnership with Eminent Transit, a corporate and employee transportation services provider with operations in over 160 cities.
To improve safety, efficiency, and passenger comfort, Eminent Transit will use Netradyne’s Driver·i technology throughout its fleet of more than 1,500 cars. The integration is particularly intended to enhance late-night travel safety for women employees, a critical topic in corporate mobility services.
“We serve over 70 corporates with executive-class transportation services. Safety is a non-negotiable expectation from our clients, and Netradyne’s technology ensures we meet and exceed those standards,” said Ravi Kiran, CEO of Eminent Transit.
The cooperation also signals Netradyne’s further entry into the corporate fleet sector in India, a market projected to experience rising demand for safe and dependable mobility solutions in the next years.
Growing Worldwide Using Artificial Intelligence Netradyne’s products are already used globally by over 3,000 enterprises; their technology runs in over 450,000 cars. Netradyne in India has already collaborated with few companies including Shell, Indian Oil Skytanking, Writer Safeguard, and Greenline.
The company is also collaborating with government bodies such as NITI Aayog and the Ministry of Road Transport on projects related to advanced driver monitoring, including drowsiness detection technologies.
Nedungadi said, “Solutions like Driver•i are becoming necessary tools as global fleet operators under pressure to improve safety standards, lower insurance costs, and strengthen driver retention.”
Future Technology Development and Outlook
Netradyne’s commitment to R&D is rooted in India, where the firm runs its core design, development, and testing labs. Critical for providing quick and accurate insights in real-world driving conditions, the company’s developers concentrate on deep learning models, computer vision, and edge AI.
Its emphasis on edge computing sets the business apart from its rivals. Driver•i provides quicker incident detection and reporting by processing data locally instead of depending totally on cloud servers, hence enabling real-time coaching and accident prevention.
Netradyne is, thus, aiming to access related fields such improved driver-assist technology and autonomous vehicle monitoring in particular. Especially with tighter transportation safety rules being applied across North America, Europe, and Asia, the need for AI-powered fleet safety solutions is projected to rise dramatically.

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to embed itself across business functions, SAP India has seen its pivotal “Ghibli moment” – not in consumer tech, but in enterprise finance. The turning point came when mid-size businesses began actively inquiring about and adopting SAP’s AI-driven cash forecasting solution, said Rajeev Singh, Head of Corporate Business, SAP Indian Subcontinent.
Singh described this as a defining shift, noting that once CFOs started to engage deeply with AI to solve core financial forecasting challenges, the conversation around AI adoption in enterprises became serious and urgent.
“Cash forecasting became our Ghibli moment – it’s when CFOs, traditionally the hardest to convince, began asking us how quickly they could implement this AI capability,” Singh told The Mobile Indian in an exclusive interaction.
From Boardroom Hype to Operational Necessity
From excitement to pragmatic fact, artificial intelligence has changed. While Singh contends that in businesses the expectations are greater, tools like ChatGPT bring artificial intelligence into families and public debate. End users in businesses today want AI-infused procedures that mirror the intuitive experiences they have had in personal tools. Singh underlines, however, that enterprise artificial intelligence has to be domain-specific, traceable, and secure in addition to simplicity of use.
“The key questions in enterprise AI are: Is the model relevant to my domain? Can I trace back the decision logic? Is the data being used secure and compliant?” Singh said. SAP uses a framework it refers to as “3Rs” – relevant, responsible, and reliable AI – for guiding AI deployment in enterprise systems.
Security and Data Responsibility Take Centre Stage
In contrast to open, public AI tools, enterprise users remain concerned about data security and intellectual property. Singh cautioned against feeding sensitive data into open AI platforms, noting the potential exposure of competitive information.
SAP’s approach ensures that training data for AI stays within the organisation’s ecosystem. Its Proprietary AI models focus on vertical-specific use cases, offering contextual solutions for finance, HR, procurement, and other departments. For example, Singh explained how their AI system can predict cash availability for salary payments on future dates by analysing inputs from treasury, loans, accounts receivable, and external factors.
High Adoption Rates and Persona-Specific Deployment
According to SAP’s internal survey, 96% of mid-size business owners now consider AI a top strategic priority. SAP has responded by embedding AI into 180 use cases and plans to expand to 400 across departments.
The modular design allows business heads to select specific AI tools relevant to their function. HR heads are using AI to auto-generate job descriptions, screen resumes with reduced bias, and structure interview questions. Procurement leaders are leveraging AI to monitor legal and reputational risks associated with long-term suppliers, using SAP’s global business network.
For CIOS and Chief Digital Officers, SAP offers solutions that map dependencies across complex IT infrastructures, helping them simplify and modernise legacy systems with predictive insights.
Convincing the CFO: The Hardest and Most Crucial Win
Singh acknowledged that CFOs and CLOs are often the most cautious adopters of new technologies due to their roles in ensuring compliance and managing cost structures. But once they see measurable outcomes, such as improved cash visibility or reduced risk exposure, they often become the strongest internal advocates for AI adoption.
This, Singh noted, has been SAP’s internal tipping point. By embedding AI into the financial core of the enterprise and solving a tangible pain point like cash forecasting, SAP has moved AI from a peripheral innovation to a strategic imperative.
“Once the CFO is convinced, the rest of the organisation gets time and space to follow,” he said.
Future Outlook
While SAP’s embedded AI use cases already provide substantial value to clients, Singh said the company also enables businesses to develop their own AI tools through a secure and compliant development environment. This flexibility ensures that enterprises can customise AI solutions to unique needs, beyond the standard modules.
SAP’s roadmap includes deeper vertical integration of AI, with a continued focus on solving persona-specific challenges. The company also aims to extend the reach of its AI-driven systems into smaller enterprises, aligning with broader trends of AI democratisation in business.
As organisations across sectors prepare for increased AI integration, SAP’s bet on secure, relevant, and traceable AI may prove to be a cornerstone in the evolving landscape of enterprise transformation.
