Generative AI in Higher Education (BMC)

What is generative AI? What implications and uses does it have for teaching, learning, academic research and pubishing?

AI and Assistive Technology

Generative AI has shown promise in assistive technologies ranging from computer-generated captions or phone apps that describe a camera's view, which could be be life-changing for individuals with disabilities. However, developers must involve individuals with disabilities in development of these tools and the privacy and data security policies that govern them to fulfil that promise.

AI and Accessibility

Disability advocates are also concerned about the inclusivity of AI technologies developed for mass markets -- that is, ensuring they are both accessible to and relevant for individuals with disabilities.
