Exploring AI: Image Descriptions
Artificial Intelligence is a hot topic right now. It appears to be attached as a buzz-term to many products and services and is increasingly mentioned as a solution for accessibility. In the first of a series of articles we explore how AI currently performs with image descriptions, highlighting some of the capabilities and challenges with automated image description tools.

Accessible Books Consortium 10th Anniversary
Many congratulations to all involved in the Accessible Books Consortium on their 10th anniversary.

The celebration was concluded with a performance from Cobhams Asuquo, a blind singer/songwriter from Nigeria.
