    A warning for Adobe #InDesign users. I recently updated my copy, and after preparing a document, the recipient of that document sent me the alt text that popped up on one of their figures. Apparently, by default, InDesign uses AI to generate (often hilariously wrong) alt text for images.

        @pinakographos So images of Klein Bottles are now NSFW?

        Thanks "AI"!

            @pinakographos The worst thing is, that's probably not even generative AI. They'll be using CLIP for the descriptions, which is cheap but fallible (phallible?) Any VLM would get the right answer here, but that would cost money to run...

                  @pinakographos I can't wait to see this popping up as alt-text in documents that I edit. They already come with things like "Warning: AI-generated figures may be inaccurate."

                        @pinakographos @macmapman And then when they turn it back on in the next update, it's "easily turned off". Just like when they add this antifeature under a dozen other settings, where it's turned on by default.

                                @pinakographos Firefox has the same kind of thing enabled by default in their embedded pdf reader (pdfjs).

                                        I've noticed that too. What pissed me off even more than it being on by default is a) if you go into your Object Export Options it states that "This standard generative feature uses 1 credit per generation." and b) the alt text is generated for the entire image file not the cropped version one uses in their layout. So Adobe is forcing AI on all users while hiding the costs to generate an alt text that will be wrong by design.
