- x3n0ph3n3 3y agoIt's not quite the same, in that at least the false numbers come from elsewhere in the document being scanned. Samsung is pulling data from elsewhere on the internet to "correct" images.
- fsh 3y agoNo, it really isn't. Xerox had a bug in the image compression algorithm. Smartphones use neural networks and multiple exposures to achieve picture quality far beyond what the hardware is capable of. This is very different technology for a very different purpose.
- j16sdiz 3y agoIt is the same "let's use image from something else to fill in this gap and hope nobody would notice" mindset. xerox use image snippets from same document, samsung use something the their "AI" made up. Both of them are trying to be smart and replace stuffs with something "similar"
- hooby 3y agoThe issue was, that a small font sizes and default print quality settings, the caching mechanism would consider some digits like 0 and 8 to be similar enough, to use the cache - which would end up switching numbers around. This finding did completely invalidate the financial book keeping and backup of tax records of many companies. I sure hope nobody uses the Samsung camera app to file their taxes and keep their books...
- seri4l 3y agoI'm sure many people do. There are tons of apps to scan and parse invoices. Makes sense as the current mid range phone cameras work just as well as mid range scanners but don't take any space and do that job an order of magnitude faster.
