Episode 208 - Blinded by the Hype? A Conversation About AI and Accessibility
Episode 210
Tuesday, 29 April, 2025

In this episode of the Limitless Podcast, Shawn welcomes Kaia, Rob and Jill to the podcast to explore how mainstream AI is being integrated into technology and affecting life for the blind and partially sighted community. Kaia, a Grade 11 student with low vision, shares how she uses powerful AI tools like Seeing AI, Grammarly, ChatGPT, and a host of other apps to make school and daily life more accessible. Jill, on the other hand, gives us a firsthand look at her experience using Meta AI glasses—cutting-edge technology that offers hands-free, real-time descriptions of the world around her. Finally, Rob, our Podcast Producer, joins the conversation to highlight how quickly AI is evolving and making its way into everyday devices. It's a thought provoking conversation about the growing prevalence of AI in both assistive technology and mainstream devices that you don't want to miss!
