Judy, who contracted polio when she was 18 months old, gave me the quote that perfectly summed up that little-known civil rights movement. "Disability only becomes a tragedy when society fails to provide the things we need to lead our lives — job opportunities or barrier-free buildings, for example," she said. "It is not a tragedy to me that I'm living in a wheelchair." That idea seemed so unexpected and strange that my editors at a newsmagazine decided not to publish my story. It was still a radical claim that disabled people didn't see themselves, or their conditions, as something to be pitied. Or that they insisted what most held them back wasn't their health condition but society's exclusion — maybe attitudes that they were less capable to do a job, go to college or find romance; or a physical barrier, like a sidewalk without a curb cut. That reimagining of what it means to be disabled did gain traction over the years — the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act just three years later in 1990 was a milestone — thanks to leaders like Heumann, who died suddenly on Saturday at age 75 at a hospital in Washington, D.C. She'd been hospitalized the previous weekend with breathing problems: 5) Eye Drops Sold Worldwide Recalled Due to Non-Sterility | CNETCheck the medicine cabinet if you recently purchased eye drops from online retailers like Amazon: 6) Accessibility and AI: Microsoft Details Its Plans for a More Inclusive Future | PC MagazineAt Microsoft's annual Ability Summit, we learned how artificial intelligence is powering some of the most exciting developments in inclusive and accessible design: 7) Elon Musk Publicly Mocks Twitter Worker With Disability Who Is Unsure Whether He's Been Laid Off | CNNElon Musk has apologized after publicly scoffing at a Twitter employee's uncertainty about whether he had been laid off in a recent round of cuts and speaking dismissively of the employee's disability in a series of tweets Monday night: 8) Microsoft's Accessibility Chief On Bing's Chatbot, The Disability Divide, And MoreMicrosoft's Ability Summit has come a long way since its inaugural event 13 years ago. What began as a meeting of about 20 employees has grown to more than 20,000 participants from within and outside the company, located in 110 countries. The free online event that took place on March 8, 2023 featured sessions with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, and Microsoft Chief Accessibility Officer Jenny Lay-Flurrie: 9) Inside the Suspicion Machine | WiredObscure government algorithms are making life-changing decisions about millions of people around the world. Here, for the first time, we reveal how one of these systems works: 10) ChatGPT Explained: Everything You Need To Know About The AI Chatbot | TechRadarPublisher (Di Blasi): This incredibly thorough and regularly updated explainer article will answer all of your questions, including what comes next. AKA ChatGPT 4. But we shouldn't get too excited. The company's CEO warns that "in general, we are going to release technology much more slowly than people would like." TechRadar: ChatGPT has quickly become one of the most significant tech launches since the original Apple iPhone in 2007. The chatbot is now the fastest-growing consumer app in history, hitting 100 million users in only two months — but it's also a rapidly-changing AI shapeshifter, which can make it confusing and overwhelming. That's why we've put together this regularly-updated explainer to answer all your burning ChatGPT questions: 11) Eargo Presents New Minute, Affordable Hearing Aids | The Hearing ReviewThe need for increased awareness around hearing wellness has been amplified now that hearing aids are available over-the-counter since the FDA's ruling in August 2022. Eargo is making solutions for hearing loss more accessible to everyone while innovating the devices to be practically invisible. Last month the brand launched its latest hearing aid, Eargo 7, which combines the high-tech and high-touch of high-end devices, at a more affordable price point: 12) Wearable Tinnitus Device by Neosensory Reduces Tinnitus SeverityNeosensory, a technology company designing solutions for hearing impairments, has published new results in their recent scientific study of Duo, their therapeutic intervention for tinnitus (ringing in the ears).

The paper has just been published in the International Tinnitus Journal: Bimodal stimulation for the reduction of tinnitus using vibration on the skin: 13) OTC Hearings Aids At A Pharmacy Near You: Two Experts Weigh InIn October 2022, the FDA's ruling on over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids went into effect, allowing the sale of hearing aids without a prescription. This ruling is intended to make hearing aids more accessible and affordable. Now that hearing aids are available over the counter, you may be thinking of trying them. But what if you need assistance selecting or adjusting OTC hearing aids? Can your pharmacist help? 14) Elon Musk Said Neuralink Is Ready For Humans. Regulators Disagreed. | MashableApplication denied. That's what regulators with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had to tell Elon Musk's brain implant company, Neuralink, after it sought the green light to begin human trials. Furthermore, it seems unlikely that Neuralink will receive an approval soon, at least not within any timeframes that Musk has previously mentioned. The news of the FDA's denial of Neuralink's application comes from a new report by Reuters. The outlet spoke to more than half a dozen current and former employees who shared details of the rejection, which actually came about a year ago. The FDA's denial was not publicly known before: 15) Should Apple Be Allowed To Block Innovative ChatGPT Tools?Last month, BlueMail rolled up an update to its email client.

ChatGPT is OpenAI's trained language model that communicates conversationally. Although the impact of this technology on the corporate world isn't yet clear, AI has inarguably been rapidly changing the way we work for a while now. While some changes due to AI cause controversy, many of its benefits are cause for celebration: 23) New Sound Navigation Technology Enables The Blind To Navigate | MedicalXpressA new study by researchers at Reichman University's Brain Cognition and Technology Institute directed by Prof. Amir Amedi has shown that visual navigation areas in the brain can be activated using sound. By traversing mazes using sound information instead of visual information after training, visual navigation areas were activated: 24) Accessible Design in the Age of Artificial Intelligence | Cam Waller | Accessibility.comArtificial intelligence (AI) 's recent emergence has revolutionized how we interact with technology.

It takes files in a variety of formats, including M4A, MP3, MP4, MPEG, MPGA, WAV and WEBM: 29) Ads in Audio Books is a Cursed Idea That Won't Go AwayAudible is testing advertisements on some audiobooks and podcasts, though it currently remains unclear which 'free' titles have ads and which don't: 30) It's Always Sunny Is Officially TV's Least Shutting-Up-Est Show | AV ClubIt's not a secret that the "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" Gang likes to talk, what with the vast majority of the show's plots eventually devolving into its five central weirdos attempting to verbally badger their victims, each other, and sometimes just reality itself into submission. A new study would seem to confirm that, as WordFinderX—which, as far as we can tell, mostly concerns itself with helping people cheat at Scrabble — analyzed subtitle data from a ton of American TV shows and determined that Sunny had the highest words per minute, at 176.2. Which might not actually be ideal, in terms of accessibility; there's a "six-second rule" in subtitle creation that suggests a two-line snippet of dialogue should be on the screen for about six seconds, which is roughly 140 words per minute. (That being said, we found at least one academic paper that notes the “rule” is nebulous in origins, and that viewers can actually handle, and enjoy, faster text.) In any case, Sunny for sure pushes those limits; its nearest competitor is the now-ended Brooklyn Nine-Nine, which averaged 174.6 words per minute: 31) Website Accessibility Guide: Accessibility Made Easy in 2023 | Mark Holden | Website PlanetPublisher: (Di Blasi): Trigger warning. This article promotes Accessibe, one of the many software overlays that claim to make any website "instantly accessible." I just want readers to know that we are keenly aware of the consensus amongst many AT professionals regarding these kinds of software overlays, but it is our duty to report the news. Outside of the article claiming that Accessibe is the "fastest and easiest" way to become accessible, it also details many other ways to achieve accessibility, and why you should do so, even without using a software overlay. Mark Holden: A website with accessibility issues prevents both disabled and able-bodied users from getting the most out of your site, its content, and — if applicable — the products and services on offer. It isn't fair, nor particularly viable, to deny a huge portion of your audience access to your site. Furthermore, depending on what country you are in, it may also put you at risk of lawsuits. In many cases, your website must be usable by everyone. But where do you begin? Your entire site needs to be evaluated with accessibility in mind. All text must be displayed on a background with sufficient contrast, all images require descriptive alternative text, and all interactive elements should have metadata explaining their purpose. And that's just the easy stuff — deeper flaws in design or functionality may require a significant overhaul. In this article, I'll give you valuable tips and guide you through the changes necessary to ensure your site is accessible to all: 32) Sam Ash Class Action Claims Website Not Fully Accessible To Visually Impaired, Blind VisitorsJahron Black has filed a class action lawsuit against Sam Ash Music Corp.

We tend to book properties through various services, one of which is VRBO. Little did I know that property owners can you review you as a guest through VRBO's system. Imagine my surprise when for the first time this year in renting multiple properties I received an email saying a property owner had rated me and to see the rating, I had to submit my own review. Well, I wouldn't be writing here if as you can guess, trying to write a review, I encountered some serious accessibility issues. Beyond the immediate frustration of not being able to submit a review, I learned that other property owners can see how you are reviewed in this same system. So, you have people submitting ratings of how you were as a vacation renter that you are not able to read until you submit a review. But I'm not able to submit the review: 38) I'm A Badass Blind Babe — Walking Down The Street With My Cane Is PowerfulA self-proclaimed "badass blind babe" is opening people's eyes to what it's really like not being able to see. Jessie Wolinsky, 30, is using her handicap and social media presence to empower herself and others while also educating them about her disease: 39) 'Tactile Tours': How Can 3D Printing Facilitate Access to Art and Culture For the Visually Impaired?Valentin Hauy is a voluntary association dedicated to the support of visually impaired people in France. Created in 1889, it deploys a large number of actions throughout the country to allow the visually impaired easier access to education, to the world of work, but also to culture. In 2022, the association organized the Tactile Tour, a new and interactive temporary exhibition. The latter consists in presenting 12 relief reproductions of world-famous works such as Leonardo da Vinci's Self-portrait and Vitruvian Man or Raphael's The Marriage of the Virgin. The objective is simple: to discover art through touch. Blind and visually impaired people have the opportunity to feel the work by coming into contact with it. The exhibition is of course accessible to everyone, and sighted people can extend the experience by participating in the visit blindfolded. Headsets are available to provide a detailed description of the works that the visitor touches: 40) 5 Recipe Sites To Find Dishes And Food Recommendations By IngredientsWondering what to cook with the ingredients and groceries you have at home?

Two upcoming episodes, titled “Cleft Hood” and “All That Jazzy,” will spotlight disability representation addressing volunteerism, community service, teamwork, wheelchair use, and cleft palate disorder: ➜ Featured Webinars, Training Courses and EventsSubmit your access information related Webinar, Training Course or Event for consideration within this section using this form: https://accessinformationnews.com/submit-event or locate "Webinar / Training Course Submission Form" within the main menu of the Access Information News website.March 13, 2023 through March 17, 2023 | 2023 38th Annual CSUN Assistive Technology ConferenceWelcome.

As a modern land grant university, an important part of Ohio State University's mission is outreach and engagement, serving the community through a variety of activities. During the tenth anniversary year of the Americans With Disabilities Act the Multiple Perspectives On Access, Inclusion And Disability conference was created to help fulfill this mission. In short, the goal of the conference is to encourage the kind of change suggested by Leslie Kanes Weisman in the opening quote. It is hoped that the annual conference will serve as a catalyst for positive change and a springboard for collaborations with our partners in education, business, public, and social service. Each year a series of workshops will provide a forum for individuals and organizations to expand their knowledge and perspectives, and an opportunity to increase community resources through the synergy of collaboration. The workshops are designed to bring a diverse audience together to discuss the full spectrum of disability issues and experiences. To ensure broad participation from the university community, business, state and local government, educators, advocacy organizations, social service agencies, and individuals with disabilities sponsors are sought each year to subsidize conference participants.
