En The best accessible-tech products from 2023 se destacan varios productos tecnológicos para mejorar la accesibilidad. El año 2023 también ha sido el año de la inteligencia artificial y me ha llamado esto que se cuenta:

GIPHY’S ALT-TEXT DESCRIPTIONS

Giphy helped to further democratize internet culture by partnering with digital accessibility provider Scribely to write expressive alt-text descriptions for its most frequently shared GIFs. Rather than relying on AI to generate the content, Scribely enlisted a team of about 15 writers well-versed in accessibility, pop culture, and creative writing to add alt-text to more than 10,000 GIFs in the first phase of the initiative. While opting for human-generated descriptions that might take longer to scale, the nuances of describing memes or humor in general cannot be replicated by a bot. Giphy and Scribely also plan to run a pilot program to integrate descriptive text within a GIF’s metadata, enabling it to accompany the file across various platforms such as Microsoft, Google, and Apple workplace software.
