Samsung Galaxy Store New Design, Focuses On Games

Leave a comment

Introduction:

Recently, Samsung has redesigned its Galaxy store and has put more focus on the gaming category. The new design is user-friendly and has several options related to gaming. The updated Galaxy store has a simple design. It will offer a list of top-rated games listing its reviews.

If you’re a gamer who is looking for downloading Fortnite then you can easily download it from Galaxy stores. According to the claims, Samsung’s Galaxy store is currently the only app store in mobiles from which you can easily download Fortnite.

After the legal battle between Apple, Google, and Fortnite, both companies removed the particular game from their devices. However, Samsung has managed to take advantage of this situation too.

New Design of Galaxy Store:

It has a nice design with two tabs on the home screen. These two options are Games and other applications. Before this, the application had many tabs such as explore, games, exclusives, etc.

Galaxy Store now also offers exclusive previews, promos, and rewards for different games. When your level gets greater in your game Samsung rewards keep getting higher. These reward points can be exchanged on the next game that is downloaded by the user.

Google Playstore Vs Galaxy Store:

Most Android users get their different applications and games from the popular google play store. However, every Samsung phone comes with a Galaxy Store downloaded on it. We can easily see that Samsung is trying to get competitive with Google Playstore. It already has been focusing more on the gaming side so that they can influence Gamers to use their app store.

Conclusion:

In early 2019, Samsung created a new look for its App Store. The company is working hard to stay in the market as Google is dominating the internet marketplace. I believe that these tricks will help Samsung’s Galaxy store to get more popularity at least among gamers.

Samsung Electronics Expands AI Lab in Canada

Leave a comment

Samsung Electronics announced on 2 May the expansion of its ‘Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) artificial intelligence (AI) Lab Montreal’ in Canada. The lab will help the company to “strengthen its fundamentals in AI research and drive competitiveness in system semiconductors”.

The AI Lab is located in Mila – the Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms – a research centre in the field of deep learning founded by Professor Yoshua Bengio at the University of Montreal. SAIT AI Lab Montreal has an open workspace with the aim of working closely with the AI research communities in Mila.

The lab will focus on unsupervised learning and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) research to develop “disruptive innovation and breakthrough technologies, including new deep learning algorithms and next generation of on-device AI”.

To drive the effort, the AI Lab has !actively recruited leaders in deep learning research”, including Simon Lacoste-Julien, Professor at the University of Montreal, who recently joined as the leader of the lab.

In addition, Samsung is planning to dispatch R&D personnel in its Device Solutions Business to Montreal over time, and to utilize AI Labs as a base for training AI researchers and for collaborations with other advanced AI research institutes.

Bengio is one of the world’s greatest experts on deep learning, machine learning, and AI. SAIT has collaborated with him on deep learning algorithm research since 2014, successfully publishing three papers on academic journals.

SAIT has actively pursued research collaboration with other top authorities in the field, including Yann LeCun, Professor at New York University and Richard Zemel, Professor at University of Toronto. Bengio and LeCun, along with computer scientist Geoffrey Everest Hinton won the 2018 Turing Award which is known as the “Nobel Prize in computer science”.

“Samsung’s collaboration with Mila is well established already and has been productive and built strong trust on both sides,” Professor Bengio said in a statement. “With a new SAIT lab in the midst of the recently inaugurated Mila building and many exciting research challenges ahead of us in AI, I expect even more mutually positive outcomes in the future.” “SAIT focuses on research and development – not only in next generation semiconductor but also innovative AI as a seed technology in system semiconductors,” added Sungwoo Hwang, Executive Vice President and Deputy Head of SAIT. “SAIT AI Lab Montreal will play a key role within Samsung to redefine AI theory and deep learning algorithm for the next 10 years.”
