I don’t particularly use generative IAs that create Alt Text from images, but I’ve seen a lot of people who do use them and I think that’s the only use of AI from which I can’t draw anything negative.
The fact is that there are many people who do not know how to make a good Alt Text, and therefore either do not put them or put one that is only the word “photo/image”, which is much worse.
I think if AI had started there, as a tool to help accessibility, it wouldn’t have the stigma it has today.
But of course, there are not enough blind people in the world from whom to get absurdly, ridiculously, vulgarly obscene amounts of profit…
I think that in this context it does not apply because the person in the image is talking about people who use accessibility as an excuse to keep asking ChatGPT to do their homework, and I in particular refer to the legitimate use of AI solely and exclusively to facilitate accessibility. I could give as an example the Bots on Mastodon that, if you follow them, when you upload an image without Alt Text, they respond to the Toot with a detailed description of the image.
Where is the context about using AI to do their homework?
Not the OP so their point of view might differ.
I’ve only seen LLM and ADHD connected via writing / homework tasks. Perhaps that’s the same link OP thought of.
And the txt in the image is anyway just an aggressive individual opinion. I don’t get the logic of “I don’t want or use this so no one is allowed to see it as beneficial”.
