  • Also I’m not saying that’s a good thing. It’s just an inevitable thing.

    Then why respond when I was mentioning its usefulness and that the blind community was not heard by the tech bros.

  • It's not, listen to the blind community instead of making assumptions (I mentioned that in my first comment).

  • Because good alt text needs a lot of context, so it must be done by humans for humans at our current state of tech,

  • Because good alt text needs to be highly context dependant, so you can't automate it. The better alternatives we have right now are crowd-sourced alt text sites, where volunteers may generate descriptions.

  • Theyre adding an opt-in alt text generation for blind people

    No, that's not useful at all, but Mozilla refused to listen to the blind community.
