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?

Alternatively, it’s built into the platform. So when someone uploads an image to Lemmy a local AI model does the description.

Edit: Then it could even be marked as AI generated and people could choose to be exposed to it or not.
