we've been slowly working on adding alt text to all of the pages in the Wizard Zines archive at https://wizardzines.com/comics/. It's not done yet but for the ones that are, they're all actually searchable by alt text!

do you mean like an LLM? I don't really believe in that, I'd rather pay a human being to do it, which is what we've been doing very slowly. I think getting it right matters.
That's great! Sometimes I have had to write lots of captions myself, and I found that a LLM helped me with a starting point so I just had to tweak some details which was faster than starting from scratch.
This is a really good point that sometimes gets missed
LLMs can perhaps get most of the way there, but it's important for accessibility that we get more than 'mostly correct'
I think that's a fair approach as long as it's actually reviewed to be accurate & up to standard. The problem becomes when it's done to completely replace
