What Samsung’s new AI will do with smartphone calls
New details emerge on the so-called Samsung AI: the South Korean company's next smartphones will be able to translate phone calls in real time
The new frontier of artificial intelligence will be in the field of translations, for the happiness of those who work in one of the sectors increasingly put at risk by ChatGpt and its partners. Only a few months ago, the Swiss Interprefy announced Aivia, an automatic voice translation service available in 24 different languages - complete with regional accents – which can be used both in person and on platforms such as Microsoft Teams and Zoom. Then came the decidedly more substantial announcement from Google, whose AI will do the same job in conferences on Meet. Now, according to new information coming from Samsung, the next cell phones from the South Korean company will be able to translate conversations on the phone.
SAMSUNG AI FUNCTIONS
This way, everyone will be able to speak freely to everyone and language will no longer be an obstacle. We still have to see the program in action, but virtually as early as 2024 each of us will be able to conclude a deal with a Chinese or Japanese person on the phone while speaking in Italian.
All this thanks to the AI Live Translate Call function which, the company says, “will make a personal translator available to users with the latest Galaxy phone whenever they need it. Audio and text translations will appear in real time as you speak, making it extremely easy to place a call in another language.”
WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE GALAXY S24
For such wonders we will have to wait for the Galaxy S24, the first in the series to include an integrated generative artificial intelligence under the body that rumors say is "similar to GPT", the technology behind the much talked about algorithm cooked up by Microsoft's OpenAI. The AI will be called Gauss named after Carl Friedrich Gauss. Developed by Samsung Research, the template includes Samsung Gauss Language, Samsung Gauss Code and Samsung Gauss Image.
“Mobile technology has incredible power to facilitate connections, productivity, creativity and more for people around the world. Galaxy AI is our most comprehensive intelligence offering to date and will forever change the way we think about our smartphones,” commented Wonjoon Choi , EVP and Head of R&D, Mobile eXperience Business at the company.
Galaxy AI will be powered by both Samsung-developed on-device AI and cloud-based AI, enabled by open collaborations with other companies in the industry. “It will transform the daily mobile experience and at the same time allow you to count on the security and privacy of Galaxy,” Samsung says.
THE BRAIN OF THE NEXT (HIGH-END) SMARTPHONES
At the moment we know that the new South Korean flagship in its standard and Plus variants will be powered by both Exynos 2400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 while the Ultra will only feature the chip produced by Qualcomm under the body.
At the Samsung System LSI Tech Day 2023 which was held a month ago at the Samsung Semiconductor US headquarters, the Exynos 2400 with Xclipse 940 GPU based on AMD's RDNA 3 architecture was at the center of the scene. On that occasion, Samsung showed a demo to around 300 selected people, including consumers and partners, who came to the headquarters and revealed several interesting technical specifications.
