Do I know anyone who uses a screen reader who would be interested in sharing their perspective on AI generated captions?

@levampyre I'd have to first search for the relevant hashtags, and I don't know how to do that :)

(seriously though, suggestions welcome, I don't actually know how I'd discover those. Thanks!)

@NoahCarver @levampyre @disability @ACBNational I'm mostly just curious about peoples experience; I got someone the other day saying "if you're pushing back against AI you're being ablest, people benefit from more captions", but I suspect that it's the opposite: instead of nothing, it's scattered with ridiculous captions that don't make sense, or are technically correct but leave out context. But we're both sighted, so it didn't seem like an argument worth having and I figured I'd ask instead.

@NoahCarver @levampyre @disability @ACBNational also /cc @cameron who is writing something about a similar situation and may have actual, specific questions.

@NoahCarver @levampyre @disability @ACBNational @cameron oh yah, sorry, I said "captions" I meant "alt-text on images", specifically for people who are blind. Although I was paraphrasing and neither was the original prompt, actually, it just became the specific example I started thinking about and that I had someone I could specifically ask about it (but also decided to ask online to get a wider set of perspectives).
