Note that the SF Lighthouse seminar on June 26 is the first of a total of 5
seminars the SF Lighthouse will be holding all focusing on how AI tools can
be used to assist persons with visual disabilities to access all forms of
written materials and cause such materials to come to life.  It is expected
that highlights of the seminars will be demonstration of specific use cases
involving the use of AI tools to gain random meaningful access to a wide
variety of materials such as books, articles, pictures you take or are sent
to you, websites, screen shots, all of which might be captured by a user or
captured by someone else who sends the material to the user via email, text,
file sharing, etc.  We are experiencing a tipping point in gaining
meaningful access to materials which up to now was accessible in forms that
did not provide as meaningful access as the new AI tools offer.  For
example, imagine asking a picture of a menu at a restaurant to make a
recommendation based on your desire to have protein and vegetables, but want
to avoid red meat, and have the picture respond to you by randomly accessing
the material and formulating a meaningful response.  Ask the menu how much
an Ice Tea is and it will tell you.  Then imagine taking a picture of the
restaurant receipt  for a group of diners and asking it to tell you what
your share of the total is if you had the poke bowl and an ice tea,
including your share of any service charges, taxes and adding an 18%
gratuity.  The receipt will provide you step by step mathematics leading to
its conclusion, or just tell you the amount which is your share of the bill.
This seminar series is not to be missed live or via virtual Zoom session,
but if you do miss it, you will be able to tap into the content on the SF
Lighthouse You Tube channel once the live /virtual  presentation video is
edited.
