Tony GebhardFriends, I've been pouring my heart into something for a long time, and I can finally share it: my book, No Sight Required: The Blind User's Guide to AI, is coming to Amazon in 2026. 💛
Here's the truth that drove me to write it — for the first time in history, the computer can meet us halfway. As a totally blind musician, assistive-tech professional, and advocate, I've navigated my whole life through screen readers — NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, TalkBack. And I've watched AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini open doors I once thought were closed for good.
But too often that technology comes wrapped in jargon and gatekeeping. So I wrote the guide I wish I'd had: clear, practical, and written from inside the blind community. No fluff, no barriers — just real, step-by-step help. How to navigate every major AI platform with your screen reader, a ready-to-use prompt library, and real-world wins: on the job, troubleshooting, gaming, even building your own accessible software.
Because independence shouldn't be a privilege. It's a right. And to claim it — no sight required. ✨
It launches on Amazon in 2026, and I'd love for you to be the very first to know. Drop your email here and I'll send you one note — no spam, ever — the moment it's live:
👉 https://books.tonygebhard.me
(And in the spirit of the book: Written by me, helped by AI, finished by a human, checked by more humans. 😊)
Thank you for walking this road with me. Every single share helps this reach someone who's been waiting for exactly this. 🙏
With gratitude,
Tony
