SoapBox: I love the AI tools like CoPilot and Gemini, but I'd appreciate some more thoughtful design for those with Blindness and Low Vision. I'm on CoPiolot and it does a great job of treating its responses as ARIA-Live events so JAWS reads them out promptly, but it loves to talk in MarkDown.Example: **Steps to Baking Cake** steps 1.**Preheat Oven** to 400 Degrees. The Markdown is just littering the whole experience, if I could save a default preference telling it I'm Blind and using a screen reader so please never respond using MarkDown or Visual Descriptions, that would be a huge win! #a11y
@certdoctor Honestly that's sloppiness on Google's part. The Markdown actually gets rendered into regular HTML, that's how it can add things like headings to its responses. It should be very doable to either wait for that conversion to be finished before injecting it into a live region, or just ... strip it out. I believe the latter is what the VS Code folks did. TLDR: fixable, just doesn't rhyme with the "Good enough, let's ship" strategy GOogle usually employs
