As a disabled web accessibility practitioner. This pisses me off. Extremely.
GENERATIVE AI DOES NOT AND CANNOT EVER REPRESENT DISABLED PEOPLE.
Just fucking hire disabled people like me who know what they're doing.
Believing AI over disabled people is ABLEISM and DEHUMANIZING. For fucks sake.

@[email protected] "ah yes, I want the factually inept toddler trapped in software to teach me about human compassion and supporting the disabled" - average AI company
it's really not hard to just give a real person your software and ask them how to improve accessibility, seriously wtf -
@ashleemboyer @cstross 100%!
I do not consider myself “disabled”, per se (just colourblind), but UI design decisions frequently seriously impact my ability to use a website or piece of software.
Just get it reviewed by ppl with disabilities, and listen to the feedback, ffs 🤨
