samsung could reveal new galaxy s23 on february 1st

Samsung may have unintentionally confirmed that it will unveil next-generation flagship phones at the beginning of February, according to news from 9to5Google. The company’s Colombian website recently published a page that mentioned a Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for February 1st, 2023, using the tagline “Epic Moments are Approaching” with the camera setup of the Galaxy S23 Ultra clearly showing.

Although several sources took screenshots of the page, the story is no longer viewable on the Columbian website. The announcement didn’t explicitly mention the upcoming Galaxy S23, but did show the flagship phone’s rumored triple-camera configuration. The teaser page’s color palette is also thought to give a hint towards the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Ultra’s new colorways of green and lilac.

Previous Unpacked events have also taken place in early February, so this news confirms what we were already pretty certain about. In addition, further rumors suggest that the launch will take place in San Francisco.

The upcoming smartphones will reportedly ditch Exynos chips in favor of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC for all worldwide markets. The Korean tech giant typically equips USA, Asian and European models with different processors, so the new models will represent something of a departure.

Finally, one of the most hotly anticipated features of the new handsets are their upgraded cameras: The flagship Galaxy S23 will likely feature a huge 200-megapixel main camera, while the base models will still come with a 50-megapixel primary shooter.

Dubai has introduced the Dubai AI Seal, a certification designed to establish trust in artificial intelligence (AI) companies and solutions. This initiative, directed by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Deputy Prime Minister, aims to create a reliable network of AI providers which government entities and businesses can collaborate confidently.

Companies must now obtain the AI Seal to qualify for UAE or Dubai government contracts. The Dubai Centre for Artificial Intelligence (DCAI), which developed the certification, sees it as a competitive edge for companies looking to participate in key national projects. Once certified, businesses will be permitted to showcase the seal across their websites and marketing materials, signaling their credibility and dependability.

The evaluation process will consider six main criteria: the company’s services and operations, the number of employees specializing in AI, ongoing and future projects, as well as existing partnerships with public and private sector entities.

Khalfan Belhoul, CEO of the Dubai Future Foundation, which oversees the DCAI, commented on the initiative’s potential: “This initiative will help create powerful partnerships between the public and private sectors, locally, regionally, and globally. It will help drive new economic opportunities by leveraging AI to serve better the economy, society, and the future we aspire to”.

The Dubai AI Seal’s goals include providing a clear framework for verifying AI providers, fostering business opportunities for AI companies, and acknowledging the industry’s strategic importance to Dubai’s economy. The initiative emphasizes AI’s role in driving economic growth, creating jobs, and strengthening collaboration between government bodies and technology firms.

All technology companies operating in Dubai and offering AI-related services or products are eligible to apply for the certification at no cost through the official website.
