Until now, artificial intelligence did not run without cloud, servers, and a constant internet connection. But this trend is now changing. Google has introduced an app called AI Edge Gallery, which brings AI directly inside the smartphone. This means users can run models like Gamma-4 directly on their phones, even without the internet. This change is not just a new app, but a step that will change the way AI is used. Until now, whenever a user asked a question, requested to understand a photo, or transcribed audio, the entire data went to the cloud server via the internet. Then the result came back to the phone. Now AI’s work is happening directly on your phone or device. Photo recognition, voice understanding, text processing… everything is stored on the local device. The need to send your data to the server is eliminated. Even without internet, almost all its features will work. How to activate – Download AI Edge Gallery from Play Store or App Store. – Select the Gamma model according to your phone’s capacity. A 2 to 4 GB version will need to be downloaded here, meaning that much storage should be left on the phone. – After this, it has four modes. From text to image… use them. From Privacy to 4 Modes; Users Get These Benefits 1. Benefit – AI will work even in remote areas The biggest advantage is privacy and access. When using AI, your data does not leave your phone, so your information remains secure. Also, AI works in offline mode, making it possible to use it even in areas without internet. 2. Technology – App will work better on new processors This app and its models use the phone’s NPU (Neural Processing Unit). Although it can run on all phones, it works better on flagship and mid-range smartphones that have AI-capable chipsets (like Google Tensor or the latest Snapdragon). 3. Privacy – Your private files will not be shared on the internet Using its agent skills and thinking mode, you can analyze files saved on your phone. The best part is that your confidential files are not uploaded to the internet. 4.

Limitations – Features like real-time search are not available This AI runs entirely on the phone and is not connected to the internet, so it does not have real-time search functionality. It is based on the data and knowledge already present in the model. Information for some models is based on data up to June 2024.
