In addition, the Galaxy S24 can also utilize Gemini's mid-range model 'Gemini Pro' via Google's machine learning platform Vertex AI, which provides advanced summarization functions for notes, voice recorder, keyboard input apps, etc. provided. By using this AI summary function, you can, for example, record a lecture with a voice recorder and pick out the important parts of the lesson.

Furthermore, Vertex AI can also access Google DeepMind's image generation model 'Imagen 2'. The generative editing feature of Galaxy S24's Gallery app allows you to intuitively edit photos and images using AI.



The Galaxy S24 series also supports Google Lens' Circle to Search .
