[NFB-Seniors-Discussion] If you have not heard - FW: [Tech-VI] Enhanced AI Capabilities Added to the Seeing AI App on iOS

Hi You All And pardon if you get more than one copy of this message!

 

Most of us have found SeeingAI to be a very helpful app. Now it has one more
function that some of us have begun to use elsewhere; AI functions.

iOS

 

>From the Tech-VI list owner: 

This morning I was wondering why more enhanced AI features weren't included
in the Seeing AI app considering that Microsoft owns the Bing chat service
and makes it available at no cost. Apparently, as of this past Friday this
or at least a variant of it has been added.

Version 5.2

. Rich Image Descriptions: Seeing AI can now provide far more detail in
image descriptions. Take a photo on the Scene channel, select an image in
Browse Photos, or share a photo from another app - and then tap "More Info".

. Ask Questions About Documents: On the Document channel, after scanning a
page, you can now ask Seeing AI questions about its contents. This can be
much more efficient than listening to the document from beginning-to-end.
For example, you could scan a menu, and ask for just the vegetarian options;
scan a receipt, and find out how much a particular item cost; or scan a
calendar, and ask when a particular event is.

. Multi-page document scanning: On the Document channel, you can now scan
multiple pages into a single document for reading, or sharing.

. For easier access to image descriptions, the Scene channel has been moved
to earlier in the channel switcher. You can customize the order of channels
in Settings.

. Plus, various bug fixes under the hood.

. Please remember to use your judgement when reading AI generated content.
We appreciate your feedback as the technology continues to evolve.
