Using AI for image transcripts, yay or nay? (lemmy.world)

Hi!

While I really enjoy seeing many of my fellow man being accommodating to people with disabilities. I find manually transcribing every image I post to be very tiring.

I thought that I could at least use some sort of AI to help with image transcripts, tho, that could probably be better used by the actual person with the disability.

So thats the question, should I skip the transcribing of an image or let an AI do it?

Yeah, but you can't preemptively take care of everyone. For example, satisfactorys arachnophobia mode wouldnt exist if it wasnt for the fact that one of the devs couldn't work on it otherwise.

Time and effort are a limited resource.

    There is a huge difference between not taking care because it's not important to you, and not taking care because you can't. It's a cop out to mix up both.

    It's completely ok to acknowledge that you can't do it, and to ask around for others to relay you. That's society at work doing good things for all of us, and that's how we get out of all this mess. It's perfectly fine !
