How Good is the Samsung AI-Powered Real-Time Call Translation Service?

Samsung Electronics has revealed that its forthcoming Galaxy flagship model, which is scheduled to arrive early next year, would include a real-time call translation service powered by AI. According to the business, this function will make multilingual conversation as simple as "turning on closed captions."

When callers are conversing, the technology included into the new Galaxy model will enable seamless translation in text and audio forms.

What is ‘Galaxy AI’?

According to the South Korean tech giant, Galaxy AI offers customers a “holistic” mobile AI experience; it is powered by both in-device AI developed by Samsung and cloud-based AI deployed in collaboration with "peer" industry leaders. One of the benefits of this feature is the Live Translate Call feature - a "personal translator" for people with the latest Galaxy AI device. 

With Live Translate Call, voice and text translations appear in real time as you speak, making it easy to call a second language speaker.

In addition, the function is integrated into the speech function, which saves you from using third-party applications for translation. According to the manufacturer, Galaxy AI will appear in early 2024. Impact of GalaxyAI

Samsung's GalaxyAI, powered by generative artificial intelligence, is expected to revolutionize the way users interact with their devices. >From language assistance to image processing, embedded AI is poised to bring significant change.

Amid growing concerns about data protection in the world of AI, Samsung insists that Galaxy AI works on its devices and ensures that private conversations are safely stored on the user's phone. This commitment is in line with ongoing discussions about the responsible use of artificial intelligence technology.

Samsung language availability

Samsung's real-time translation service is not limited to its own devices, but the technology also works when the interlocutor uses a smartphone other than Samsung. The device's AI technology is set to make the language barrier a thing of the past, potentially supporting multiple languages.

While the promise of real-time speech translation is seen as a significant achievement, analysts raise questions about the practicality and implementation of the process. The company is also simultaneously developing Samsung Gauss, a generative artificial intelligence model that will be integrated into its product portfolio for various applications, including language, code and image processing.
