A live walkthrough of an AI-generated site, led by a blind person
Date and Time: February 25 at 12 pm ET
Duration:
60 minutes, including a live Q&A session.
AI-assisted tools can generate websites quickly — but accessibility issues often surface only when a blind shopper tries to complete a task.
In this session, we start by showing how a modern AI web platform can generate a complete, multi-step website experience from simple prompts. Then, blind assistive technology specialist Joseph DiNero, navigates that experience using his everyday tools, revealing where AI-generated sites can break down for real shoppers if accessibility is not prioritized.
