======================================================================

Samsungs latest flagship Android smartphone, the Galaxy S24 , has finally 
been unveiled, and we now know that it will come packed with artificial 
intelligence enhancements, but theyre not in-house developments. 

Instead, Samsung has revealed a multi-year partnership with Google Cloud to 
bring generative AI into its phones. 

Googles Gemini Pro multimodal model, plus Imagen 2 on Vertex AI, are set to 
be deployed to Galaxy S24 devices, putting powerful AI in the hands of 
thousands of consumers. Galaxy S24 gets Googles generative AI 

Samsung proudly proclaimed in its announcement that, in doing so, it had 
become the first Google Cloud partner to deploy Gemini Pro on Vertex AI to 
consumers. The Gemini family of models were announced just recently and poses 
a big threat to OpenAIs GPT models. 

Being a multimodal model, Gemini can combine text, code, images, and video. 
In the case of its deployment on Samsung Galaxy S24 devices, it promises to 
generate summaries across Notes, Voice Recorded, and Keyboard. 

Janghyun Yoon, Corporate EVP and Head of Software Office of Mobile eXperience 
Business at Samsung Electronics, said: After months of rigorous testing and 
competitive evaluation, the Google Cloud and Samsung teams worked together to 
deliver the best Gemini-powered AI experience on Galaxy. 

Imagen 2, a text-to-image diffusion technology, will deliver safe and 
intuitive photo editing capabilities to consumers, and will be built right 
into the Galaxy S24s Gallery app. 

Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian, said: With Gemini, Samsungs developers can 
leverage Google Clouds world-class infrastructure, cutting-edge performance, 
and flexibility to deliver safe, reliable, and engaging generative AI powered 
applications on Samsung smartphone devices. 

Looking ahead, Samsungs future looks to be getting a generative AI boost. As 
part of the partnership, it also became one of the first customers to test 
Google flagship version, Gemini Ultra, which outperforms GPT-4 in many 
benchmark tests. More from TechRadar Pro These are the best AI tools and best
