SUMMARY:What AI Can Do For (and To) Web Accessibility
DESCRIPTION:What AI Can Do For (and To) Web Accessibility\nPresented on May 21\, 2024 at 12pm ET\nPresenters: Hans Hillen\, Director of Knowledge Center\, & Ricky Onsman\, Technical Content Writer \nArtificial Intelligence (AI) has once again become a hot topic due to the permeation of AI-powered language models such as ChatGPT in the public discourse and professional services. But what can it do to enhance web accessibility? More importantly\, what harm can it do to it? Is it the prophesied end-all accessibility solution that will put us all out of work? Can a developer who knows nothing about accessibility still create accessible web content using AI? \nThis presentation explores the dual role that Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) plays when it comes to web accessibility. On the one hand\, it can be a powerful aid for people with disabilities\, enabling dynamic content adaptation\, offering voice navigation\, and providing automated descriptions for inaccessible images and videos. On the other hand\, removing the human aspect from accessible web-design tasks can easily lead to harder-to-discover accessibility obstacles. \nOur talk highlights the potential influences of AI/ML on web content for its developers\, accessibility professionals\, and people with disabilities. Through practical examples\, we’ll illustrate the good\, the bad\, and the ugly that AI has to offer web accessibility as we attempt to answer the question: Is there room for AI in A11Y? \nRegister today! \nUnable to register?\nIf you are using Internet Explorer and have cookies disabled (either via privacy mode or decline cookies on the website)\, you may not be able to register through this form. \nIf you are still unable to register\, please email ida@tpgi.com with your name and contact information.
