According to Forbes, here are the 4 smartphones setting the standard for AI innovation

1. Apple iPhone: Privacy and intelligence combined

Apple has introduced its Apple Intelligence platform, marking its entry into the AI space. The company’s collaboration with OpenAI, known for technologies like ChatGPT and DALL-E, has enabled it to deliver AI tools that merge cloud-based and on-device capabilities. This platform features an advanced language model that assists with tasks such as email drafting and document summarisation. Siri, Apple’s voice assistant, has also benefited from these enhancements, improving its conversational functionality.

Apple’s Image Playground allows users to create customised images, while the Genmoji feature helps design personalised emojis. These elements contribute to a user-friendly experience. A significant aspect of Apple’s approach is its emphasis on privacy. Many of the AI features run directly on the device, limiting data transmission to the cloud and appealing to users concerned about data security.

The Scene Optimizer in Samsung’s camera system adapts camera settings based on the subject, enhancing photos whether they are portraits, landscapes, or other types of images. Beyond the camera, Samsung’s AI-powered performance system manages CPU and GPU resources intelligently, adjusting to user behaviour to boost battery life and overall efficiency.

The Pixel also enhances zoom capabilities and low-light photography, ensuring high-quality images under various conditions.

In addition to its photography strengths, the Pixel integrates the Gemini chatbot for multiple purposes. This AI feature provides real-time captions for calls and videos, transcribes voice recordings instantly, and handles language translation.
