Lol so y'all know I use AI. But seriously, some people frustrate me with how they think every blind person has AI, and wants to use it all the time. Look, I'm on Android where they make it trivial to get image descriptions, and even then in a group for blind people, I'm not really expecting people to not use Alt-text.
Then again this is the AI for the Blind group where people basically jerk off to AI, so my expectations for how blind people should treat each other are obviously too high. So I asked why a posted image doesn't have Alt-text. And the person responded with oh I can't be bothered and like you should bring your own accessibility.
And something about that really got to me. Bring my own accessibility? On iOS, I would have had to share the picture, choose one of the AI apps, wait for it to generate, and read the possibly incorrect description. And no, AI generated images aren't perfectly described by AI. On Windows, I would have had to pay cents to have it described. Or pay who even knows what anymore for JAWS and have it describe the image. On Mac, maybe VOCR would do it? I don't even know how you'd get AI descriptions with it. On Linux, well, you'd have to dig around for a script or send a link to some service.
And the kicker, the image wasn't even useful. The person said it was just like, a visual niceity or some such. So like the image might as well not even be there. It's so exhaustingly stupid and I don't even know why I'm spending this much time ranting about it, but the whole being told by a blind person that you're supposed to just AI the (probably) AI generated image just, meh whatever. The blind community™ has spoken obviously, so AI images made by blind people are in, I guess. And no Alt text. Because why help other blind people just a little? Being a stumbling block is just more fun I guess. Makes them feel more sighted I guess. Makes them feel more on top, because they can "see" or some crap. Then again this is also Facebook we're talking about, where people just don't care.
