Samsung Electronics and Google Cloud announces a multi-year period partnership to offer generative AI technology

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Google Cloud announced a new multi-year partnership to bring Google Cloud’s generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology to Samsung smartphone users around the globe. Starting with the Samsung Galaxy S24 series announced at Galaxy Unpacked in San Jose, California, Samsung will be the first Google Cloud partner to deploy Gemini Pro and Imagen 2 on Vertex AI via the cloud to their smartphone devices.

 Samsung has become the first Google Cloud partner to deploy Gemini Pro on Vertex AI, a multimodal AI that can understand, combine, and understand various types of information. The feature is available across Notes, Voice Recorder, and Keyboard, and provides Samsung with critical Google Cloud features such as security, safety, privacy, and data compliance. Janghyun Yoon, Corporate EVP and Head of Software Office of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics stated, “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.”

Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series users can now access Imagen 2, Google’s most advanced text-to-image diffusion technology, via Vertex AI. This feature, found in Generative Edit2 in S24’s Gallery application, offers safe and intuitive photo-editing capabilities.
