JAWS Power Tip: How To Use the New Picture Smart AI Keystroke to Describe an Image in Context (www.toptechtidbits.com)

JAWS has added an AI feature that can describe images. Users can activate the feature by Pressing INSERT+SPACEBAR, P, then ENTER. It can be used to describe what is being displayed on the screen. It is not perfect but a way of getting additional information when no alt text is available. I believe this kind of AI feature may eventually become standard across screen reading software.

Sounds neat. But not free software for sure, however I couldn't figure out how much it costs.

Open LLM's will be doing this soon (if not already) and in linux instead of windows, so all good things.
