Screenshot of Forbes article headline that reads: “The Communications Battle for Accessible and Accurate Live Captions: Humans Versus AI” published on December 3, 2024 to coincide with the United Nations’ International Day of People with Disabilities (IDPD). Article written by Forbes Communications Council member, Toby Wong, who is a late-deafened board director and global marketer breaking barriers. She supports Gold House, Collective Visibility and Disability Belongs.

The communications battle between human and AI live captions centers on accuracy, accessibility and trust.

A sign on a disability elevator entrance says: "Notice: To use the disabled lift, please come upstairs to the buffet and notify a staff member so that we can turn the power on. Thank you."

Ok. We'll just fly up there. This crap is rife in Taiwan. The odds are high that if someone goes up for you and asks them to turn it on, it's filled with garbage as that is what is most used to take garbage down.
#Disability elevators are used for garbage regularly in Taiwan.
