They are using OCR for selecting plain text?


It's possible to use the Gemini "ask me about this screen" to OCR the selected area of the screenshot. I guess that might be more efficient in some contexts then trying to use the native text select.

Multi-modal LLMs like Gemini are better than traditional OCR in most ways.


It is a poor person, sitting in a 3rd world country, thanscribing the text in your clipboard. See Alexa for details. /s

I'm only half joking.


There’s an API (Actually People Implemented) for that.


A lot of people drive fine when they are drunk.


when did you check last time? I've been using gpu passthrough for more than the last ten years with different gpus from amd to nvidia to onboard intels. last few years I went back to native windows, because some games refused to run in a vm.


that's where the word comes from? he should (or should have) trademark it, it's very widely used


if you take money for something, things get a bit more complex
