Aira, the visual assistant app, is taking a leap into the world of artificial intelligence with its latest feature: Access AI. This tool harnesses the power of generative AI to provide detailed descriptions of images taken by the explorer, as well as photos in their photo library.
With Access AI, users can receive an initial description of an image taken by the user. For added accuracy and peace of mind, there’s an option to verify this description with a human visual interpreter. This interpreter reviews the AI-generated description and sends back an updated response, ensuring the most accurate and helpful information.
Aira’s unique approach merges the efficiency of AI with the reliability of human insight. This blend ensures users get the best of both worlds, offering quick, accurate descriptions and the option for human confirmation when needed.
At the 39th annual CSUN Assistive Technology Conference held in March, Aira announced this groundbreaking feature, drawing comparisons to the popular BeMyEyes app. Both apps now offer AI-driven image descriptions, making visual assistance more accessible and comprehensive than ever before.
What sets Aira’s Access AI apart is its user-friendly approach. After providing a brief description, it prompts users to ask if they want more details. This feature allows Explorers to get the exact amount of information they need without feeling overwhelmed. On top of this, the agents from Aira are highly vetted, offering greater security to volunteers from other apps.
