Using AI for image transcripts, yay or nay? (lemmy.world)

Hi!

While I really enjoy seeing many of my fellow man being accommodating to people with disabilities. I find manually transcribing every image I post to be very tiring.

I thought that I could at least use some sort of AI to help with image transcripts, tho, that could probably be better used by the actual person with the disability.

So thats the question, should I skip the transcribing of an image or let an AI do it?

ackshyually ai is a broad term that applied to ocr when it was first made, but nobody uses it that way anymore, they refer to machine learning. but wait! machine learning is used for ocr!!
