> Emoji with the darkest skin tones can be difficult to see in dark mode — a problem for anyone who sends or receives them. That’s why we built an AI-powered contrast tool that analyzes each emoji at the pixel level, flags when the contrast ratio is too low and suggests high-contrast solutions that are implemented by designers

What part of this is AI? What part of that couldn’t have been done without it? Do they just mean they vibecoded it?

Maybe they call any kind of algorithm that accesses the content of media (e.g. pixel colors) and not just metadata "AI" now?
Image generation, I suppose. That is, I expect this to not be just a gamma correction.
Decision trees are AI
