I understand that an electric supply can be a higher voltage (120v, or 240v, etc.) and within those voltages be a different Amperage (15A, 20A, 50A, etc.).
But none of this is “smart” or doing anything special besides supplying an amount of power or amperage that is available by the connection.
I also understand that a battery needs line voltage (AC current) to be changed to DC to work. So I get that there is a converter (rectifier?) to do this.
So where/what is the “smart” part?
Can a charger really make my phone or car charge faster than the available electrical supply?
Can a charger really make my phone or car charge faster than a different charger in the same electrical supply?

A fast charger simply is capable of outputting a higher voltage and current to your device (as long as device supports it). Remeber the phone charger is basically a power supply that converts the AC to DC and not all chargers can convert to the higher voltage/wattage DC. The smart part means that the charger and phone fan negotiate the current and voltage instead of the charger outputting a fixed voltage and current all the time.
