AI for Visual Disabilities

The Chicago Public Library’s Assistive Resources and Talking Book Center runs a workshop series introducing artificial intelligence specifically for people experiencing visual disabilities. On Thursday, September 24, from 10:00 to 11:30 AM at the Harold Washington Library Center, the session covers practical ways AI can help with reading text, recognizing surroundings, and sending messages, with plenty of room for questions and peer discussion in a beginner-friendly setting. Registration is free. Accommodations like sign language interpretation require a request at least 14 business days in advance.
