Samsung Electronics and Google Cloud have announced a multi-year partnership to bring Google Cloud's generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology to Samsung smartphone users globally.
Accordingly, starting with the Samsung Galaxy S24 series, which was just launched today at the Galaxy Unpacked event in San Jose, California, Samsung will be the first Google Cloud partner to deploy Gemini Pro and Imagen 2 on Vertex AI via cloud computing on its smartphone devices.
“Google and Samsung have long shared deep values about the importance of making technology more useful and accessible to everyone. We are excited that the Galaxy S24 series is the first smartphone to feature Gemini Pro and Imagen 2 on Vertex AI,” said Janghyun Yoon, Corporate Vice President and Head of Software, Mobile Experience Business at Samsung Electronics.
Samsung is the first Google Cloud partner to deploy Gemini Pro on Vertex AI to users. Designed for multi-modal support, Gemini is able to quickly summarize, understand, operate, and combine different types of information including text, code, images, and video. Users can now take advantage of summarization across Samsung native apps like Notes, Voice Memos, and Keyboard. Gemini Pro on Vertex AI provides Samsung with key Google Cloud features including security, safety, privacy, and data compliance.
Galaxy S24 series users can also immediately benefit from Imagen 2, Google’s most advanced text-to-image technology from Google DeepMind to date. With Imagen 2 powered by Vertex AI, Samsung offers users intuitive and secure image editing capabilities. These features can be found in the Generative Edit section of the S24 Gallery app.
With this partnership, Samsung is one of the first customers to test Gemini Ultra – Google’s largest and most powerful model designed for complex tasks. The S24 series will also use Gemini Nano, the LLM model on the device and part of the Android 14 operating system, the most efficient version of Gemini for on-device tasks.
“Together with Samsung, Google Cloud sees a huge opportunity for generative AI to create useful, engaging mobile experiences that enhance connectivity and communication for millions of people,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud. “With Gemini, Samsung developers can leverage Google Cloud’s world-class infrastructure, superior performance, and flexibility to create secure, reliable, and impressive generative AI applications on Samsung smartphones.”
