MediaTek's New Chipset Enables Instant, Offline AI Image Generation on Phones
-
I saw real-time AI image generation on a phone with MediaTek's Dimensity 9300 chipset. It was instantaneous and worked offline without any lag.
-
This was a huge leap from just a year ago when 15 second lag times for local AI image generation impressed. Now real-time feels standard.
-
The Dimensity 9300 brings more on-device AI capabilities like summaries, photo expansion, and editing. But those are now commonplace.
-
A local video generation model took 50+ seconds and wasn't very accurate. The real-time image generation was far more impressive.
-
An AI avatar maker worked in near real-time but the quality reminded me of early Dall-E days. The image generation felt more polished.
