I didn't downvote you. You got downvoted because you seemed to be saying that somehow highlighting text is an example of AI. You now seem to be saying that samsung has a feature whereby you can copy text out of a picture. This is probably still wrong because OCR isn't neccesarily AI but none the less I didn't vote either way.
Ok very good. I'll accept that you didn't downvote me.
Modern OCR is exclusively AI driven which is why it's so incredibly good right now. Moreover the OCR on modern cell phones such as the Samsung Galaxy s24 and pixel variance do much more than simple text recognition, they're able to scan bar codes and translate text on screen.
It's extremely useful for what I do. I think you should give AI a try instead of falling onto the anti ai band wagon.
