SUMMARY:Accessibility in the Age of AI: Cutting Through Hype to What Comes Next
DESCRIPTION:Government endorsement of using AI to meet regulatory compliance is mixed\, but the pressure to automate your way to broad accesibility coverage has never been higher. So what’s safe to hand off to a machine\, and what still needs a human? This session breaks down the latest regulatory stances on AI-assisted accessibility work and makes the case for why two tempting shortcuts will get you in trouble: waiting until deadlines loom and trusting AI to do the whole job. We’ll dig into what’s real in hype around MCPs and how connecting AI to your accessibility platform can genuinely expand your program when you set it up right. You’ll leave knowing how to fold AI into your workflow without inheriting its blind spots\, how to catch the pitfalls that creep into AI-generated content\, and where manual review and remediation fit in an AI-accelerated process. The robots are fast. They’re also confidently wrong sometimes. Here’s how to get the speed without betting on an artificial guess. \nAs a special bonus webinar wrapping up our Human-Centered AI for Accessibility webinar series\, this session is free and open to everyone. Join us for one final conversation exploring how to harness the potential of AI while keeping human expertise at the center of accessibility. \nMore about the IAAP Human-Centered AI for All webinar series.\nhttps://www.accessibilityassociation.org/webinar-series/a17IV0000CyoJUtYQM/humancentered-ai-for-accessibility
