Can't turn off AI on zoomed photos

[4bsent4nonymous]

Samsung has apparently applied really ugly automatic AI to every photo taken with a zoom-in - how do I turn it off? I've checked the camera and gallery settings, the only "intelligent" options there are are about colors or scanning text/qr.

Yes, I preferred the bad quality pics, because at least I knew what I was looking at.

There are two ways I think you can remove the AI processing.

Option 1
Go into the camera settings, then Intelligent Optimization, set the optimization quality to minimum and the Scene Optimizer to off.
I had done this in the past because I agree, the AI looks pretty rough but it also meant all my photos had zero more touch ups.

Option 2 (preferred by me)
In the camera you can set your mediums (photo, video, food, night, slow motion, etc). Move that slider to the right onto More, and it'll show more mediums. A + button will show up to the farthest right and you'll select that and then the Pro mode. This'll add the Pro camera mode so you can use it as often as you'd like.
The Pro mode is a little more complex than a standard point and shoot of the normal Picture mode, but Samsung puts zero processing on the pictures and you can alternare between Pro (real photos) and Picture (AI enhanced photos) super quickly.

Hope this helps!
