Super dumb question but why was this so hard for someone to build.

I’ve been wanting to simply ask AI about whatever is currently on my screen for years.

I don’t get why we can’t easily have this.

We have this though, as a (controversial) built-in Windows's feature called "Recall". We have many apps like that (vercept.com) and MCP servers that do that. It's just, besides privacy concerns, it doesn't works well yet for agentic usecases.
