Apple released macOS Monterey beta 4 today which brings support for the new Live Text feature to Intel Macs. Previously, the feature was only available to M1 Macs.

The enhancement was noted by Rene Ritchie.

macOS Monterey Beta 4 includes Live Text for Intel Macs. Sounds like Apple prioritized it based on demand, but it was made much easier by the lack of real-time requirements for a camera system

The Live Text feature lets users interact with text in any image.

"Click an address and it opens in Maps. Call, message, or save any phone number you see. You can copy and paste just as you would with any other text. And personal details and information from images never leave your device."
