Samsung Electronics realizes human brain-like AI Chips!
Earlier at the beginning of the year 2022, Samsung Electronics revealed that it has realized the world’s first MRAM-based in-memory computing. The new development is in the form of the Human Brain is even capable of interference.
Samsung Electronics is expected to be able to keep ahead in the fast-growing AI chip industry with this new AI chip technology. In-memory computing, the work is to store data and carry out calculations with the chip at the same time.

By using the technique, a large amount of information in memory is computed in parallel in the memory without any movement, and as a result to which the power consumption is reduced to a large extent.
The technique is very useful in developing low-power consumption chips. As we all know the global demand for this kind of Intelligent chip is soaring now, as the technology is largely being used by the industry for a wide variety of applications.
According to some popular blogs the average annual growth of the global AI chip market for the period of 2022 to 2025 is estimated to be over 30 percent.
Advantage of MRAMs
- the MRAMs provide a high level of data stability
- High processing speed
- Low resistance value hindering the realization of in-memory computing
Samsung Electronics successfully achieved a low power consumption design by overcoming the limitation and have reached the accuracy level of 93 to 98 percent in the number classification and face detection, respectively.
The Samsung research is particularly meaningful in the above-mentioned particulars and is the world’s first in-memory computing-based realization of MRAMs that can be mass-produced in the combination with the non-memory chip manufacturing process.
Samsung Electronics has earlier suggested the possibility of the MRAM chip platform being used as a neuromorphic platform in near future.
Neuromorphic Computing?
Neuromorphic computing includes the usage of these MRAMs that provide us with the capability to store, compute and analyze the data that works similar to neurons in the human brain. The benefits of such computing are
- 10x faster processing capability
- 60x more inter-chip bandwidth
- One million neurons flowing with 15x greater resource density
- 3D scalable and have Ethernet support
- Enhanced learning and adaptation capabilities
This will be further used for next-generation intelligent devices and autonomous systems. Samsung has been already working on the prototype, and we could soon expect a launch of a human-AI Chip, by the end of the year 2022, but nothing has been cemented from its side and is still uncertain where they are going to apply it.

Samsung Galaxy S23 FE smartphone users are getting a fresh update with a November 2024 security patch. This update boosts system security and stability to provide a better experience.
November 2024 security update for Samsung Galaxy S23 FE smartphone arrives with One UI build version S711NKSU5BXK4. The update is currently rolling out in South Korea and will soon be available in more countries.
This fresh update is based on Android 14 and One UI 6. However, the devices is eligible for the next major One UI update, expected to get a One UI 7 stable update after the Galaxy S25 launch next year. It is not clear yet whether the device will get One UI 7 beta.
While Samsung is going to release One UI 7 Beta soon, it is important to make your Galaxy S23 FE smartphone ready for it. For that, you need to install the latest November 2024 security update on your smartphone.
Notably, the latest security patch addresses 52 vulnerabilities across Android and Samsung’s software. Google has resolved 38 high-priority issues, while one CVE is not relevant to Galaxy devices.
Additionally, Samsung’s patches include fixes for 13 vulnerabilities, primarily impacting user profiles, Dex Mode, Galaxy Watch, and certain system features like Settings and Maintenance Mode.
If you are using a Galaxy S23 FE smartphone, install the update now via Settings >> Software Update >> Download and Install.
Samsung has improved its Mobile Security Rewards Program by increasing the maximum reward amount to $1 million for security vulnerability reports from outside security experts. This change aims to encourage more collaboration and openness in mobile security, showing Samsung’s goal of keeping user data safe.
Since its launch in 2017, the program has introduced a new system for classifying security risks with Samsung Mobile Security Risk Classification. This system now offers clearer details about different types of vulnerabilities
Moreover, it includes new factors like the ability to lower a threat’s severity and a classification for threats considered to be minimal risks. Vulnerabilities are grouped into five levels – Critical, High, Moderate, Low, and Ineligible, which helps security researchers understand how serious each threat is.
The program applies to all Samsung mobile devices that receive monthly, quarterly, and biannual security updates. It also rewards reports of potential security issues in the latest Samsung Galaxy services, such as Bixby, Samsung Account, and Samsung Wallet, among others.
Samsung also commits to providing up to seven years of security updates for its mobile devices. The updated rewards program includes a special initiative called the Important Scenario Vulnerability Program, which addresses serious security issues, such as unauthorized access to data and harmful code execution.
In August 2024, Samsung released its first Annual Rewards Program Report to highlight its success since the program began. In 2023 alone, Samsung awarded over $800,000 to 113 researchers, with total payouts exceeding $4 million. This Mobile Security Rewards Program is effective immediately.
On November 19, Google dropped the Android 16 Developer Preview. It’s a very initial development stage of the new Android version. Samsung Galaxy devices may receive the new Android 16-based One UI (8) update in the second half of 2025.
Dozens of Samsung Galaxy devices are eligible for the Android 16 update. Galaxy smartphone users are currently waiting for the One UI 7 Beta Program to kick off. It will bring Android 15 to Samsung smartphones and tablets.
Samsung’s running way too late this year. It hasn’t yet started the new software’s beta testing. The public rollout is slated to be started early next year. Meanwhile, Google is shifting gears to streamline Android’s adoption across vendors.
In recent years, Samsung has significantly improved its software support. The majority of new phones come with at least six years of OS update support. The policy peaks up to 7 years on flagship devices starting the Galaxy S24 series.
Determining the Android 16’s eligibility for Galaxy isn’t a pretty difficult task. You will surely receive the update if your device is shipped with Android 14. It’s for entry-level phones, while for most there’s no concern for mid-range and flagships.
Samsung Android 16 Eligible Device List
Galaxy S Smartphones:
- Galaxy S22 Series
- Galaxy S23 Series
- Galaxy S24 Series
Galaxy Z Fold and Flip Phones:
