Samsung Galaxy S24 series: Samsung is gearing up to unveil its highly anticipated Galaxy S24 series, set to be a flagship showcase of the company’s advancements in generative AI. The trio, including the S24, S24 Plus, and S24 Ultra, is expected to debut on January 17, offering users a glimpse into Samsung’s innovative AI features.
One standout feature, known as “Generative Edit,” is drawing attention due to its resemblance to Google’s Pixel 8 Pro Magic Eraser function. According to leaks from reliable tipster Arsène Lupin (@MysteryLupin), promotional materials from Samsung suggest that Generative Edit will empower users to manipulate and remove objects from photos, as well as fill empty spaces using AI.

However, a notable aspect is the requirement for a Samsung account login and an internet connection to use Generative Edit, echoing the Pixel 8 Pro’s reliance on Google Photos backup and an active internet connection for Magic Eraser. While Qualcomm’s high-performance chip is expected to handle on-device processing, the promotional material indicates the need for an internet connection, raising some concerns among users.
Unlike Google’s approach, Samsung appears committed to making Generative Edit available across the entire Galaxy S24 lineup, emphasizing inclusivity. This move contrasts with Google’s strategy, where the Magic Eraser feature is exclusive to the pricier Pixel 8 Pro.
Samsung’s push for AI is evident through initiatives like the Galaxy AI experience, rooted in its in-house Gauss LLM technology. As the Galaxy S24 series launch approaches, the tech community eagerly awaits the unveiling of Samsung’s generative AI capabilities and how they navigate the challenges and benefits of this technology.
Stay tuned for more updates as the January 17 global launch date for the Galaxy S24 series draws near, promising a comprehensive look at Samsung’s advancements in AI technology.
