AI for accessibility helps people with disabilities

Many able-bodied people take for granted the fact that they can easily perceive the world around them and move and communicate freely. AI for accessibility is enabling people with visual impairments to more easily search websites containing images, read handwritten text or describe scenes and images on a screen. AI also helps narrate the world around them and helps them "see" people, objects and scenery. Predictive text enables people with limited mobility to type words quicker and easier than ever before. Speech-to-text services help people with hearing disabilities by generating closed captions, enabling them to more easily communicate.
