- In this exclusive panel session, we’re joined by Suraj Kika, CEO at Jadu, James Jacobs, Accessibility Lead at Jadu, and Robin Christopherson, Head of Digital Inclusion at Ability Net as we deep-dive into why accessibility, AI, and next-generation technologies need leadership.
It may not seem obvious, but they need the same type of leadership. Without leadership on accessibility, organisations will be unable to benefit from AI and emerging technologies.
The panel discussed how digital accessibility is often only considered in terms of meeting the needs of those with physical or neurodiverse impairments, but the acceleration of AI over the last two years is a wake-up call for organisations to sharpen their accessibility focus. If your digital systems are not accessible, then AI is as hampered as those with disabilities.
This session is a really powerful insight into the future of accessibility, covering important topics and initiatives that every organisation should be prepared for, but even more so - leading on.
Questions:
1:06 - Has the digital world fallen behind the physical world in terms of accessibility?
3:37 - Why is there a gap between the physical and the digital?
5:39 - Is digital accessibility often an afterthought because it’s considered a tech problem for IT?
14:10 - From a developers point of view, if you’re fixing accessibility retrospectively as an afterthought, what are the problems?
15:59 - Does regulation help?
40:26 - Does accessibility enable your organisation to be AI ready?
48:54 - What do the recent changes to WCAG (2.2) mean for accessibility?
58:13 - What is the one thing an organisation should do right away? - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
