    I believe their point was that site developers should just include alt text, without ai ever being needed.

    But in practice, sometimes they don’t, and that’s been an issue for ages. And in practice, a lot of images on the internet are user generated/submitted, and most sites don’t have a culture of users writing alt text for their images. Mastodon does, but even lemmy doesn’t really.
