Matthew Whitaker<p>I’m diving into Reddit for the first time and decided to start with the Dystopia app, which is designed to be more accessible for blind users. I’ve found the r/Blind subreddit, and it seems like a great place to connect with others, but I’m still figuring out how to post on there. If anyone has tips or guidance on how to navigate the process, I’d really appreciate the help!</p><p>I’m excited to explore Reddit and see what the community has to offer.

Christine Malec<p>There’s a cornucopia of insight and analysis about <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> in my timeline. Alongside the profoundly important critiques, members of the <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/BlindCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlindCommunity</span></a> will also be aware of its game-changing role in image description. I want to find funding for a podcast exploring this. I think the wealthiest candidates with the most to gain, good PR for AI that is, would be OpenAI and Anthropic. Can anyone suggest an in to someone I might tap to find sponsorship for this idea?</p>
Christine Malec<p>This coming Wednesday, Feb. 7, from 7To9 p.m. PSt JJ and I will be doing that thing we do, talking description with the lovely folk at Vancouver-based Vocal Eye, for their weekly Almost Live Zoom event.

Christine Malec<p>I'm the cohost and coproducer of an <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/AudioDescription" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AudioDescription</span></a> based <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/podcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>podcast</span></a> called Talk Description to Me.
