It's "AI" but really not a lot of I.. on the new Pixel phones there are overlays, if it sees a foreign language one appears "This text is in French (etc). Do you want to translate?". The Google geniuses made sure that when you ignore or dismiss the prompt, if you leave that screen and come back multiple times, even within a few seconds, it will ask every time "Do you want to translate this text?".

Counter point - the on screen translation stuff is way better than before, it can now translate text in pictures which is a huge benefit on many East Asian websites.

Sure it might work well... but some genius thinks it's great UX to prompt someone 10 times within 5 seconds because it thinks "Oh, the user is in a new screen, and there's foreign language in it!"... it's almost as bad as the 90's website doing a loop of window.open()'s before the browsers thought of blocking that Javascript function...
