I’ve been using it for a while now on my Pixel and I gotta say it’s actually really useful, you can copy text from anywhere, even apps that normally won’t let you (both intentionally blocked and unintentionally) copy/select text

And the easy “translate what’s on my screen” functionality has been really good on Lemmy when I come across the random German memes lmao

The actual search function also comes in handy when I want to reverse search an image from an app, but the app won’t let me save it. It’s nice to skip a step or 2.

That being said, since it’s actually good I now expect it to be nerfed and/or abandoned in about 6 months

    Even if its nerfed and abandoned, a heartening new trend that I’ve seen is cutting edge technology being democratized in FOSS apps. There’s all sorts of ai stuff and image stuff that was limited to the top five tech companies a year ago that’s now available to everyone.
