I think you have a very optimistic view on how far crowd sourcing this is going to take us.

BTW, you think web developers aren't already using editors that use AI to generate alt text automatically? AI alt text is going to be everywhere regardless.

Also I'm not saying that's a good thing. It's just an inevitable thing.

Then why respond when I was mentioning its usefulness and that the blind community was not heard by the tech bros.
