Thanks for the reply, and for the valuable perspective. I hope the post is okay, but if you feel I should reword it please do let me know. Would you like me to make clear that in some situations the AI option is valuable?

The post was based on a discussion about this I had with another blind person on here, but the 500 character limit made it very compressed so some nuance may have been lost.

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services I'm not one of those peoplewho is offended by everything. Plus, I know you would never willingly mislead people. I just wanted to share this with you, since both do have their place. Sometimes, it's not possible to have something described by a human. I've also seen cases in which those who don't speak English well used ai to ensure that their images had alt text, which I actually found to be heart-warming.

Thank you for sharing this, it brings good insight.

If AI is used for accessibility, that is great.

The discussion I had elsewhere with a blind person was mainly about abled people who were no longer bothering to do accessibility any more on the assumption that AI would deal with it all. I was trying to reach them with the post, and did not intend to be criticising the use of AI by disabled people.
