Robert Kingett backup (weirdwriter@tweesecake.social)'s status on Friday, 13-Oct-2023 20:28:36 JST Robert Kingett backup Because I feel as if I am the *only* blind person that hasn't jumped on the #AIHype nonsense yet, it really annoys me when I see the degradation of once mostly accessible apps and or services. On the services side, Shopify. On the app side, First, the Alexa app. Then, Spotify.
Sure, for now, it's only those 2 apps I've found, but I bet you this trend will continue. Add a new **AI** feature that isn't really AI, they just branded an algorithm they had for decades as AI, but let's forget all about #Accessibility and usability. Trust me, #Enshittification will accelerate like never before as tech becomes more and more desperate. Yes, interfaces are just going to get far worse for us, but we're not preparing for this, and I doubt we will. It's gonna be a very long, long, long, decade ahead, folks.
