Which ones? Do you have an article I can read more?

This would either be opt-in or up to your device. I'd suspect any Pixel, Samsung or iPhone with Ai assisted accessibility features enabled to be likely targets.

My statement, in truth was more of a "water is wet", broad stroke. If some feature of your phone involves an Ai agent reading your screen, then I hate to say this, but I'm afraid an Ai agent may be reading your screen.

When it does, whether it does becomes irrelevant if it can, and I don't trust ifs. I directly tell my iPhone and average Android users on XMPP that they should know not to discuss much more than they would in a crowded mall, if that. You're at the mercy of your manufacturer for any illusion of privacy you believe you may have. In more truth, we all are, me on a Oneplus 11 on Lineage, just maybe slightly less so. No Ai, at least.
