With modern CPU’s supposedly shipping with ‘AI cores’: How long do you think it will take for a proper opensource, privacy respecting productivity tools(Something like whatever M$ copilot is supposed to be?) to be available?
Personally, i would love to see something like ‘Passive’ OCR integrated with the display server: the ability to pause any video and just select whatever text(even handwritten) there is naturally like it was a text document without any additional hassle will be really useful
Also useful in circumventing any blocks certain websites put on articles to prevent text from being copied
Or an AI grammar checker running natively for LibreOffice.
What are some AI tools you think should be developed for desktop Linux?
Android’s task switcher does this, and it’s amazing. I find myself using it all the time.
Meanwhile, OSX has something similar, but it involves more work, so I can’t be bothered.
If the application behaves, you can directly select text in images. Preview does it, Safari does it (in videos too), Photos does it, the window that comes up after you take a screenshot does it (I guess that’s closest to what Android does, in which way is it more work?), to name a few. I’d love this to become a standard on Linux, it’s so very useful.
