This is the kinda stuff AI should be used for, this could be big for accessibility whenever alt text isn’t actually provided

All sounds pretty sensible. I do think it might feel annoying waiting minutes to download a model for the sake of generating a line of alt text the first time, though. It would probably be quicker to write the alt text.

I think it’s about generating alt text for people with disabilities when they are missing from pictures.

Yeah if someone that is blind comes across a page I’m sure waiting for the description to generate is more valuable/worthwhile than a faster experience with no information at all.
