AI has the potential to transform many aspects of IT. So how it can help with accessibility?

In this webinar we look at the pros and cons of various uses of AI in accessibility, to help you understand where it can accelerate your accessibility efforts, where you need to take care in using it, and how to separate the hype from the opportunities.

Find out about:

  • AI in accessibility testing – its strengths and limitations, and when human input is required
  • AI in assistive technologies – strengths and limitations of AI in screen readers and text summary tools
  • How to think about accessibility when you’re procuring AI tools
  • How more accessible content (for example accessible PDFs) benefits those using AI
  • Other areas where AI could benefit users with access needs, to build the case for new AI tools
  • How to eliminate bias when you’re creating AI, by including users with disabilities throughout AI development
