Yes, I know it's a hard problem. Tesseract (the OCR library that is used in this project) is in development since 1985, but even google doesn't dare to call it an AI algorithm. OCR is of course a part that is required to build an artificial intelligence, but the term "AI" is just to overused nowadays and calling every single algorithm capable of recognizing something in some data is poison to the field itself. Solving AI is a huuge and daring problem and we should use the term appropriately.
