In a newsroom articlethe South Korean tech giant has detailed the second generation of its Gauss AI model, launched last year. The new iteration of the base model now comes with several upgrades. The company claimed that the multimodal capability, which involves managing data sets in various modalities, has been improved.

Additionally, the AI ​​model now supports between 9 and 14 languages, as well as various programming languages. It is also said to improve performance in language, code, and images.

The Samsung Gauss2 comes in three distinct models, based on the size of their settings: Compact, Balanced, and Supreme. The Compact is a small model designed to be efficient and operate in a limited computing environment. The Balanced model is optimized for both performance and efficiency, and the Supreme model can handle high-end computing tasks by leveraging Mixture of Experts (MoE) technology.

Samsung claims that the Balanced and Supreme models can outperform “leading open source generative AI models” in English and Korean language tasks, as well as coding-related tasks. The company also claims that the models offer reduced wait times, faster processing speeds, and better task management compared to open source models.

The Samsung Gauss2 is currently used in the company’s Device eXperience (DX) division and foreign research institutes. The most popular use case for the AI ​​model is an in-house coding assistant called code.i that helps with software development. The tech giant claimed that 60% of the DX division used the tool. The technology is also used by the company’s call center staff to categorize and summarize customer calls.

Although Gauss2 is currently used internally, the company also plans to ship it with its products. Samsung also believes that the AI ​​model can improve the personalization capability of its existing AI features.
