🔥Cassandra🔥How do people feel about #AltText written by AI?
I often end up thinking it is way too many words about things that don’t matter, and I often end up not boosting it.
Jupiter Rowland@🔥Cassandra🔥 When I describe a meme-based image macro, it's rather concise. But I've got very good reasons to describe my original images at greater detail in alt-text and then once more at vastly greater detail in the post itself. It depends on what people may not know about the image but want to know.
I hope to limit my future alt-texts to a maximum of 512 characters, though. That's Misskey's limit, but Misskey currently has a bug which makes it delete longer alt-texts instead of truncating them.
That said, AI also hallucinates and guesses too much without actually knowing. This occurs the more, the more obscure the topic of an image is and the less the AI knows about it.
So if you want your image description to be accurate, you'll have to write it entirely yourself.

@jupiter_rowland I try to think what about the picture adds to what I've said or what the viewer needs to understand from the image. But that does require figuring out how to put that into words…
