I did notice that many Mac apps, including Safari and Preview and Notes, do OCR on images automatically. It's pretty neat that I can easily select text in an image and copy and paste it somewhere else.

- sen 3y agoIt’s kinda ridiculous how good it is, you can even select text from inside a YouTube video while it’s playing (or pause if needed). Also if it’s text of a URL/domain or a QR code (eg in a photo of a poster, or in a video) you can hold-press/hold-click to open the link directly from the image.
