Samsung has unveiled its own generative AI model, known as Samsung Gauss. The ChatGPT rival has been developed by the company’s research division, and is named after mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, a pioneer of AI and machine learning.

The new tool will consist of three distinct elements:

Samsung Gauss Language
Samsung Gauss Code
Samsung Gauss Image

Gauss Language is a large language model that functions much like ChatGPT. The tool can understand human language and answer questions while also helping users write and edit emails, translate languages, and summarize text documents. Samsung plans to incorporate Gauss Language into its range of smartphones, tablets, and laptops to increase productivity.

Gauss Code is a tool that will help developers to write code more quickly. Samsung explained that the AI model will support “code description and test case generation through an interactive interface”.

Gauss Image, as the name suggests, is an image generation and editing tool that can also be used for tasks such as creating high-resolution images from older, low-resolution copies.

Samsung has revealed that Gauss is already being used internally by staff and will be available to public users “in the near future”. In addition, the tech company has created an AI Red Team to monitor potential AI security, privacy, and ethical issues.

“We will continue to support and collaborate with the industry and academia on generative AI research,” said Daehyun Kim, executive vice president of the Samsung Research Global AI Center, at the AI forum.

Samsung’s generative AI announcement comes seven months after the company issued a temporary ban on the tools for company-owned devices — including ChatGPT and Google Bard — after a serious internal data leak earlier in 2023.

samsung smart glasses teased for january software reveal imminent

Samsung appears poised to introduce its highly anticipated smart glasses in January 2025, alongside the launch of the Galaxy S25. According to sources in Korea, the company will first reveal the accompanying software platform later this month.

As per a report from Yonhap News, Samsung’s unveiling strategy for the smart glasses echoes its approach with the Galaxy Ring earlier this year. The January showcase won’t constitute a full product launch but will likely feature teaser visuals at the Galaxy S25 event. A more detailed rollout could follow in subsequent months.

Just in: Samsung is set to unveil a prototype of its augmented reality (AR) glasses, currently in development, during the Galaxy S25 Unpacked event early next year, likely in the form of videos or images.

Additionally, prior to revealing the prototype, Samsung plans to introduce…

The Galaxy Ring, for example, debuted in January via a short presentation during Samsung’s Unpacked event. The full product unveiling came later at MWC in February, and the final release followed in July. Samsung seems to be adopting a similar phased approach with its smart glasses, which are expected to hit the market in the third quarter of 2025.

A Collaborative Software Effort

Samsung’s partnership with Google has played a key role in developing the smart glasses’ software. This collaboration was first announced in February 2023, with the device set to run on an Android-based platform. In July, the companies reiterated their plans to deliver an extended reality (XR) platform by the end of the year. The software specifics for the XR device are expected to be unveiled before the end of December.

Reports suggest that the smart glasses will resemble Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses in functionality. They won’t include a display but will weigh approximately 50 grams, emphasizing a lightweight, user-friendly design.

Feature Set And Compatibility

The glasses are rumored to integrate Google’s Gemini technology, alongside features like gesture recognition and potential payment capabilities. Samsung aims to create a seamless user experience by integrating the glasses with its broader Galaxy ecosystem, starting with the Galaxy S25, slated for release on January 22.
