Thus, the largest AI for mobiles is compared (and differentiated)

It took several months to arrive, but Apple Intelligence, the platform of Apple artificial intelligence For his iPhone, it is finally available, from the update to iOS 18.4 and on compatible devices. Apple, in this way, renews the capabilities of iPhone software with new functions, new tools and, in general, more possibilities.

In January 2024, over a year ago, Samsung created its own suite of artificial intelligence, called Galaxy Ai. And over time, the South Korean company has improved this platform and add new possibilities. What makes us ask: how does Samsung Ia compare to Apple AI?

Do not give me an application with AI, give me AI in (almost) everywhere

Before comparing (and facing) the artificial intelligence consequences of the two manufacturers, it is important to mention and rent their greatest similarity: Samsung and Apple have chosen to integrate artificial intelligence into the operating system And, thus, offer many possibilities in different applications and characteristics of mobiles.

It means that AI is not just an application To which we can access the mobile to do things (like, when we install the Chatgpt application), but Galaxy AI and Apple Intelligence widen the possibilities of their respective devices in many ways: in the image gallery, during The drafting of an email, when receiving notifications and more.

It is the greatest success of the strategy of the two companies. Each of these artificial intelligence platforms has its own characteristics and factors that differentiate them, but their greatest advantage is that they extend what our mobiles can do. That said, let's see what their biggest differences are.

Galaxy Ai against Apple Intelligence

Apple Intelligence has barely arrived in its Spanish version, therefore, according to our tests, it has the impression that it still has a path to go in terms of maturity. However, the Apple platform shares some of the same tools and functions of the Samsung suite, designed to make our lives easier when using our mobile.

Advanced writing tools. Apple Intelligence offers a series of dedicated tools to help us write better texts, which can be used to write emails, summarize, rewrite a text according to an idea, modify the writing style (for example , if we want to give it a professional style) or simply check the grammar.

These tools are available directly from the iPhone keyboardAnd even in certain applications (such as Apple notes) allow us to choose the text format that we have selected (for example to create a table or a list, based on a text).

Galaxy Ai of Samsung in the fall backwards And it also includes a series of functions dedicated to the writing and correction of texts, adding advanced translation tools. First of all, the Samsung keyboard with Galaxy Ai can review our spelling and our grammar and change the writing style: just like the iPhone, Galaxy Ai can modify a text so that it has a more professional style And even has a publisher that allows us to generate a text via an prompt. For example, “write an invitation to a dinner on the occasion of my birthday, informal style.”

And as we mentioned, Galaxy Ai has an integrated translator directly on the keyboard. Apple also offers a translator on the keyboard, however, The Galaxy AI translator can directly translate cats Applications such as Whatsapp, Instagram and more. In general, the Samsung AI translation functions are one of its great advantages.

Image edition and eliminate objects as if by magic. Apple Intelligence offers a magic draft in the image editor of the photos of the application, which allows us to completely eliminate an object, an animal or a person from an image and to do as if he had never been there. It works quite well, although, depending on the Xataka tests, automatic detection is not perfect.

Galaxy AI offers its own tool to eliminate objects, in fact, offers two tools. The first is Available in the native image editor Since the arrival of Galaxy AI with an IU 6.1, and this has in itself quite well, comparable to the results offered by Apple Intelligence.

But there is one Second tool to eliminate objects that arrive from a user interface 7 And the results are simply incredible, because not only can an object eliminate but also generates what it understands that it was behind the eliminated object. Fill not only space, but it can even generate part of the face of a person or parts of a laptop, as shown in the image below.

Apple Intelligence also added Improvements in “mail”, “notes” applications and notifications. In the case of the application for emails, he intelligently understands how emails should be organized for better understanding, group them if necessary in a more logical and coherent manner. Application notes on the iPhone can now transcribe text, thanks to AI, and mobile can now summarize the longest notifications, even by analyzing emails and SMS to offer us a shorter version and more summarized.

For its part, Galaxy Ai added Very interesting functions for “vocal” applications and Samsung's own browser. The recorder can also transcribe recordings and even offer us a summary with the most important points that have been said. In the case of the browser, you can now summarize and translate full web pages, two of my favorite functions in the Samsung suite.

The greatest advantage of Apple intelligence and the greatest advantage of Galaxy Ai

The two artificial intelligence platforms have similar characteristics, which can vary in the number of tools they offer and in their results. However, Apple Intelligence and Galaxy AI have characteristics that differentiate them and make each special and promising.

In the case of Apple Intelligence, its greatest advantage is its integration with the Chatppt. This is not only available as a chatbot but also as an assistant in native applications, so that users can complete Siri with certain possibilities of Chathgpt.

As of Galaxy Ai, its greatest advantages are integration with Gemini and “Roda in Research”. The latter is one of the most versatile and useful tools available in the compatible Samsung Galaxy, and integration with Gemini has been reinforced with the arrival of an IU 7 and artificial intelligence agents. If Apple a Le Chatppt, Samsung has the Google AI.

Finally and also important, I think it is worth highlighting all the functions that Samsung has included in Galaxy AI linked to translation. We have already mentioned the possibility of translating application cats such as WhatsApp, but also Galaxy AI allows you to translate telephone calls in real timeA tool that works very well and can certainly make the difference when traveling or having a call with someone who speaks another language. I hope to see something like that happening to Apple Intelligence in the future.
