We've got accessibility royalty this week as Glen Gordon joins us to chat all things retirement, AI, and Vispero. Glen's considerable legacy as a developer working for Vispero is not only in the software of JAWS itself, but also in the principles of accessibility, and the continuous improvement of assistive technology. He is continuing to push himself to new levels of development as he digs deep into AI and how it can improve accessibility.
In other news, Clodagh has an email from Blind Gordon Anthony who gives us his views on the Oorion and PiccyBot apps. From AI: “Both OOrion (often referred to as Orion) and PiccyBot are specialised AI-powered applications designed to assist individuals who are blind or have low vision by providing detailed descriptions of their surroundings, images, and videos.”
So, now that the world snooker championship is over, why not take some time to enjoy the finer things in life - Blind Guys Chat: for the most discerning of listeners. 10 out of 10 Vogue editors prefer it to mannequins with a limb difference!
