TheSamsung Galaxy S24leaks and rumors just keep coming, with the latest touting AI features that may be integrated into theSamsungKeyboard and Samsung Notes app.
Even though the firstGalaxy Unpacked, at which we expect to see the Galaxy S24,Galaxy S24 PlusandGalaxy S24 Ultraget revealed, is mere days away on January 17, tech tipsterAlvin on Xclaims to have information pertaining to the AI smarts the new phones are expected to get –Samsung has already coined the term AI Phone, and touted AI features for its next-generation flagship phones.
Alvin claims the Samsung Keyboard will be powered by AI, and will offer options such as web page summarization, tone detection for sentences and the ability to switch the tone of a sentence, and automatically converting scribbles in the Samsung Notes into other formats, like an email or a text invitation.

The tech tipster, who has a reasonable track record, said other AI features will also be present in the Galaxy S24 phones, but didn’t go on to detail about them. We suspect such features could be photography focused, perhaps in the form of AI-powered tools akin to theMagic Editorfound on theGoogle Pixel 8phones.
AI front and center
Going by the leaks and rumors around theSamsung Galaxy S24 specsandGalaxy S24 Ultra specs, as well as theGalaxy S24 Ultra designspeculation, we’re expecting a trio of phones that’ll largely look familiar to theirGalaxy S23predecessors. It would appear that the big upgrades, beyond atipped titanium construction for the Galaxy S24 Ultraand a 5x telephoto camera replacing the 10x zoom lens, are likely to be on the software side.
As the rise of generative AI – whereby AI can be used to create new content, not just smartly assist with tasks and image recognition – continues to gather pace, it’s no surprise that the likes of Samsung andGoogleare exploring its use in their smartphones.
We expect the Galaxy S24 family will spearhead onboard AI inAndroid phonesfor 2024, with features that allow for the smart generation of everything from dynamic photos to plans for holidays, or responses to messages that reflect a person’s tone or personality.

To some this may be eyebrow-raising, especially when considering how easily images can be manipulated with AI, opening image fakery to people with no photo-editing skills. But it’s worth remembering that AI has been used in phones for some years, and many photos have a lot of image processing applied to them – this is needed to compensate for the shortcomings of the small sensors and the lenses in even thebest camera phones, in comparison with DSLRs and mirrorless cameras – so they’re arguably not exactly realistic to begin with.
Regardless of your opinions on AI, we’re now only a few days away from the Galaxy S24 reveal, so we’ll soon get an idea of just how smart these smartphones could be.
