This time last year, Samsung Gauss introducedits own generative AI model. At the last Samsung Developer Conference, the company unveiled its successor, called Gauss2, which offers improved performance and efficiency.
Samsung truly believes that AI can improve productivity and uses Gauss AI internally. It is used in “code.i”, an internal tool for developers in the Device eXperience (DX) division. The use of code.i has grown rapidly and now 60% of all developers within DX use it.

Gauss has also been deployed in Samsung’s call centers, where it summarizes and categorizes calls. Another application is the Samsung Gauss Portal, a conversational AI that helps employees in the DX division. Samsung has definitely practiced what it preaches when it comes to AI.
So, what is Gauss2 and how is it better than the old (and other AI models)? There are actually three models: Compact, Balanced and Supreme.
Compact is the smallest model and is optimized for on-device operation. Balanced is larger and performs better on tasks, but it is a balance between performance, generation speed and efficiency (hence the name). Supreme is built on top of Balanced and uses the Mix of experts approach – instead of using a single model, multiple models are used, each targeting different types of problems.

Depending on which model is used, Gauss2 supports 9 to 14 human languages and several programming languages. Samsung says Balanced and Supreme match or beat other AI models on tasks in English and Korean. Better yet, “their hourly processing speed is 1.5 to 3 times faster,” which reduces costs and wait times for services powered by the AI model.
Samsung is pushing ahead with its ‘AI for All’ plan, saying it will “continue to expand the reach of its AI-based services across all product lines so that users can experience an easier and more enjoyable everyday life.” And by integrating knowledge graph technology with AI, Samsung expects to be able to provide even better personalization services.”
