Caption

Seven researchers at the University of Washington tested AI tools’ utility for accessibility. Though researchers found cases in which the tools were helpful, they also found significant problems. These AI-generated images helped one researcher with aphantasia (an inability to visualize) interpret imagery from books and visualize concept sketches of crafts, yet other images perpetuated ableist biases.
