What Is Samsung Galaxy AI?
HWM Singapore|February 2024
Galaxy AI to Samsung's Galaxy S24 series is what Magic-whatever is to Google's Pixel phones. In short, they are a bunch of artificial intelligence features built by Samsung, using a combination of on-device processing (via the chipset's NPU) and cloud-based processing to make certain tools accessible on your smartphone. During its launch, these are the features available on all three versions of Galaxy S24 series phones: Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra.
What Is Samsung Galaxy AI?

01 Edit Suggestion, Generative Edit, and Instant Slow-mo

Edit Suggestion, as the name implies, suggests edits based on the perceived "defects" in the photos you've taken. Edit Suggestion uses AI to help remove reflections in glass windows or remove shadows across the subject's face. This is an on-device process done inside the default Gallery app.

Samsung's Generative Edit is to what Google's Magic Editor offers. By tapping on the cyan, three-starred symbol inside your photos app, you can erase or reposition photo elements to your liking. This depends on the user circling the offending items in the photo, and Samsung will automatically trace out the rest for you. Drag the highlighted item around to reposition it, or simply erase unwanted bits.

This service requires cloud access to Samsung's servers. It takes about 15 to 30 seconds for a Generative Edit to batch-apply all the changes in one go (which is nice, since it doesn't process every single time you make a change).

While it may not look like it, Instant Slow-mo is also a Galaxy AI feature. That's because the phone uses generative AI processing to "create" extra video frames for smooth-looking slow-motion clips. For the user, it saves them from having to reshoot the same clip in slow-motion mode.

Together, these three photography/ videography features can help Samsung users create social media-ready content with minimal retakes or mistakes.
