 This example adds AI-powered filter capabilities to the [DevExpress VCL Data Grid](https://docs.devexpress.com/VCL/171093/ExpressQuantumGrid/vcl-data-grid) (using a lightweight ONNX model and a BERT tokenizer). Unlike built-in search/filter operations, Smart AI Filter compares strings based on semantic similarities rather than exact matches.
