The promotional advertisement for the new Galaxy S23 Ultra phone announced by the famous South Korean company “Samsung” sparked widespread controversy due to the feature that some considered miraculous.
Because of Samsung’s announcement, the Galaxy S23 Ultra is able to photograph the moon in high definition through the ability to “enhanced zoom”.
According to what was reported by the “Apple Insider” website, according to an investigation by “Reddit”, it was found that this ability is deceptive marketing, as Samsung used artificial intelligence technology to enhance the details of the clarity and accuracy of the moon’s images, to appear as if they were taken with a high-resolution telescope and not a mobile phone.
During the experiment, the investigator ibreakphotos downloaded a picture of the moon from the Internet, then blurred its features and made it blurry, then photographed it with his Samsung mobile phone, meaning that the user deceived the phone by photographing the computer screen instead of the moon.
Because the phone didn’t detect the difference, the AI produced a clear picture of what it thought was a real moon.
Samsung is promoting its Galaxy S23 Ultra mobile phone as the phone that has the most powerful zoom feature in the world of mobile phones, with more than X100 times the real image proximity.
While the phone actually contains, as videos filmed with it, an amazing zoom capability, the moon photos are in fact artificial intelligence-enhanced photos.
