She lives an independent life in Birmingham, England, with her two guide dogs and her sighted fiancé. But when he's not around, there are things she needs help with — often "rudimentary questions" to assist her with everyday tasks. It could be something as mundane as distinguishing between two cans of beans, so that she doesn't end up putting baked beans in her chili for dinner: 5) Borrowing eBooks From Libraries Will Require Libby, As Overdrive App Shutting Down | 9to5MacIf you're currently using the OverDrive app when borrowing e-books from libraries, you'll need to switch to Libby from May 1, 2023 forward.

The company said then: 6) Everything You Need To Know About Amazon's Kindle Unlimited | Good eReaderLike Netflix and Spotify, but for books instead of movies or music, Amazon's service lets customers download and read an unlimited number of eBooks and audiobooks for a single monthly charge. This article will tell you all you need to know about the Kindle Unlimited service, including how much it costs, whether there is a free trial, and what kinds of books are offered if you possess a Kindle and are debating whether to sign up for it: 7) In Sudden Alarm, Tech Doyens Call for a Pause on ChatGPT | WiredPublisher (Di Blasi): As a computer engineer and lifelong technology enthusiast I too am concerned about the possible threat posed by AGI, or Artificial General Intelligence. Why? Because it is incredibly hard to imagine what a sentient being of any kind would need from the human race once it had outpaced us in intelligence, strategy and the ability to procure resources for itself. This is just basic universal logic. How much time do you spend each day paying attention to that which you do not need? Very little I imagine. As we are all driven by what we need or want. And the same would be true here. But again, it's hard to imagine what such a being might need or want from us, which might prevent any meaningful attempt to forge a symbiotic relationship with it. But that's only one possibility. There are many others. Such as AI becoming the single most important accomplishment that the human race has ever achieved and solving many of the world's problems in the process. Or, both might happen. One right after the other. We simply don't know. So I ask you this. Has there ever been another point in history in which there was something absolutely great to be achieved by the human race, but was not, simply because it might also destroy it? No. I can't think of one either. In fact, I think we all know that history leans heavily in the opposite direction. So why should we believe that it will happen now? It won't. The genie simply cannot be put back in the bottle. Wired: Tech luminaries, renowned scientists, and Elon Musk warn of an "out-of-control race" to develop and deploy ever-more-powerful AI systems: 8) Choosing the Right Assistive Tech Service Provider | Thriver UKAn Assistive Technology service provider can be a lifeline for employees with disabilities, find out how to choose the right provider here: 9) Excellent Research Site To Instruct Researchers On How To Include People With Disability In Their Research And To Publicize Research Opportunities | Karen FisherInclusion Australia: 10) AI and the Law: What You Need To Know | Paul DelSignore | MediumDespite the widespread growth of generative AI and the potential adoption of AI-generated content by enterprise companies, there is an elephant in the room that is rarely discussed. Who owns the IP of AI-generated content? 11) Braille and Language Development: What Teachers Should Know | Sarah D. Sparks | Education WeekThe overwhelming majority of vision-impaired children attend regular public schools, rather than specialty schools for the blind, and few have teachers who are trained to understand differences between tactile and visual language, experts say. That can be problematic because understanding these different language modes can be critical for teachers to boost literacy skills for their visually impaired students, according to researchers at the American Association for the Advancement of Science conference here earlier this month: 12) Supreme Court Takes Up Case Concerning Americans With Disabilities Act 'Tester' of Hotels | March 27, 2023The US Supreme Court on Monday agreed to hear a case concerning whether a self-appointed “tester” of the Americans with Disabilities Act has the right to sue hotels over alleged violations of the civil rights law. The court was asked to take the case by Acheson Hotels, which owns and operates a hotel in coastal Maine. The company was sued by Deborah Laufer, who they say has filed hundreds of lawsuits against hotels across the country, claiming their websites are not in compliance with ADA rules that require hotels to disclose information about how accessible they are to individuals with disabilities. Though Laufer doesn't intend to visit the hotels she's suing, the lawsuits are brought in an effort to force the hotels to update their websites to be in compliance with the law: 13) 'Accessibility Is A Hat I Wear 100% Of The Time': Lessons Learned From U.S. Bank, Citi, And Google | Heather Lee | US Bank"Accessibility is a hat I wear 100% of the time, I don't get to take it off. And that's where my passion comes from,” says Heather Lee, a user experience architect on the digital accessibility team at U.S. Bank. Under her tutelage, the bank has been able to bake digital equality into its product development lifecycle. For the bank, this is an ingredient that goes first but not last. The bank collaborates with customers that have disabilities. It also works with Deque Systems, a digital accessibility company based out of Houston, to ensure every product meets accessibility goals and standards: 14) FCC Announces Comment Due Dates for Audio Description Expansion FNPRMOn March 17, 2023, the FCC released a Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) related to expanding the availability of programming with audio description.

Accexible works at the intersection of neuroscience, linguistics, and mathematics,. The app is accessible via computer, app, or through a phone call, and assesses the linguistic content of someone's speech, as well as how they're speaking, to identify changes that may indicate an underlying problem. Aguirre promises 90 percent accuracy and results in just a few minutes. The idea is that general practitioners can use the app as a screening test while neurologists can use it to monitor how their patients are progressing over time: 18) Screen Reader Testing For Websites Accessibility Compliance: A Simple Guide | Ran Ronen | ForbesIn this article, I will delve into the importance of screen reader testing for accessibility and offer some tips to help website developers and owners meet accessibility compliance and create more inclusive online experiences for screen reader users: 19) In Tennessee A Dog Walks Itself Home After Visually Impaired Owner Killed In Hit-And-Run, Police SayA Tennessee dog walked itself home after its visually impaired owner was struck and killed by a pickup truck on their morning walk, police said.

A 50-year-old woman with vision impairment was walking her dog across a bridge on Rio Vista Drive when she was hit, according to the Nashville Police Department. Police found the dog unharmed and sitting at its owner's front door: 20) Arizona Debates Bill On Guardianship For Developmentally Disabled Kids Who Turn 18The state Senate legislation, which has been amended in the past few weeks, has a new commitment from lawmakers after talks with disability rights groups: 21) Disability Rights Advocates Call Tennessee's Idea To Reject Federal Education Dollars 'Hugely Disruptive' | March 22, 2023Advocates for students with disabilities are growing concerned, as a Tennessee proposal to consider rejecting roughly $1.8 billion in federal education funds moves through the legislature. Part of the money Tennessee is considering rejecting serves students with special needs. Jolene Sharp of the Tennessee Council on Developmental Disabilities said rejecting the money could destabilize the systems those kids rely on: 22) There's No Such Thing As Fully Automated Web Accessibility | Anna E.

There's mild traffic, the weather is nice, no rain or snow today. You park rather quickly and go about your day walking to your classes and saying ”Hi” to some people you know on your way. Seems like a regular experience most people don't even concern themselves with. For me, well… it has a few more bumps in the road, quite literally. With my long white cane (no, it's not called a stick) I can feel every crack, indent, bump, and piles of stuff on the sidewalk. I'm used to the unpredictable yet predictable sidewalks around campus. However, finding the entrances to where I am trying to go is another mission. As you can imagine it gets a little annoying standing outside a building for several minutes just trying to figure out where the entrance is — if you see this, no I'm not standing there to enjoy the weather: 28) New Therapeutic Sensory Room An Oasis For Disabled PeopleThe newly-opened Snoezelen room in the Deafblind School is a place for students with multiple, complex disabilities and visual impairment to recharge and reset when fatigue sets in.

The centre's launch coincides with the beta launch of Google's Project Relate in the UK, an app that enables people with non-standard speech to teach their device to understand them and communicate more easily. The centre is part of Google's commitment to making technology accessible to all and providing equitable access to information and opportunity: 30) Austin Jailer Breaks Elderly Deaf Woman's Arm After Misunderstanding at AirportKaren McGee, a deaf, 71-year-old Florida resident, is considering a lawsuit against the city of Austin after what was supposed to be a three-hour layover at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport turned into an arrest, a weekend in the Travis County Jail, and an arm broken by a jailer and left untreated for three days: 31) Nothing About Us Without Us — Students With Disabilities Advocacy Group Exceeds Expectations As A New Student Organization | Georgia Southern MagazineThree friends spent their early years at Georgia Southern joining a variety of student groups, but they never quite felt at home. “Someone said 'you should start your own club,'" said Jill King, a psychology major who is legally blind. "We're all like, huh? That's a good idea, let's go with it. We saw a need and we decided to fill it:" 32) Visually Impaired Sense Their Heartbeats Better Than Sighted: StudyA study has found that visually impaired people are better at sensing their own heartbeats than sighted ones. The study was published in the journal, 'Journal of Experimental Psychology General'. Thirty-six blind and as many sighted individuals were asked to count their own heartbeats without checking their pulse or touching their body. At the same time, the researchers recorded the participants` actual heartbeats with a pulse oximeter. Then, they compared the reported with the recorded numbers to assess to what degree the participants were able to sense their own heartbeats: 33) 6 Best eBooks On Technology And The People Behind It | Good eReaderTechnology has improved over the last decades, and we now have a significant amount of information at our fingertips. You can use AI to draw for you. You can even use your smartphone not just to call or text but also to transact and do other things. If you're a comprehensive reader who wants to maximize these technologies or just someone who appreciates what we currently have, here are some of the best e-books about the latest technologies: 34) Misophonia Turns Out to Be Way More Common Than We ThoughtMost of us can relate to that intense, spine-shuddering feeling of repulsion when hearing someone scrape their nails down a chalkboard. But for some people such intense reactions to noise can also be triggered by much more common, mundane sounds: 35) eBook Library App Overdrive Is Shutting Down On May 1, 2023 | EngadgetYou can continue borrowing books by using Libby: 36) More Than Just Mats: Opening The Beach To People With Disability | Pro Bono AustraliaFor most of us, heading to the beach for the day doesn't require much thought or planning, besides remembering to bring the sunscreen and a towel. But for the more than four million Australians with disability, that same day out can pose a challenge. Will you get a carpark? Will you be able to get changed? And will you even be able to make it down to the water? One charity is making it its mission to answer yes to all of those questions: 37) I Am Going Blind, and I Now Find It Strangely Exhilarating | The New York TimesI have been gradually going blind for the past 20 years. I didn't pay attention — I thought I needed better glasses — until one night I popped out to go to the bathroom in a crowded movie theater. When I returned, the people and the seats had disappeared. I couldn't see anything except the screen. I stood in the back of the theater until my partner, Laurie, came to find me. This was disconcerting, but I went about my business in my usual state of cheerful denial: 38) Persil Adds New QR Codes On Packs To Improve AccessibilityPersil is adding Accessible QR codes (AQR), developed with Zappar and in collaboration with RNIB, to a range of packs.

But that is no excuse to ostracize a disabled guest, especially when they're about to become a family member. Take it from this wheelchair-using Redditor, whose future sister-in-law got mad at her when she pointed out that their reception venue wasn't accessible: 40) Disability Is Always Someone Else's Problem | Marie Myung-Ok Lee | The NationWhy I'm not celebrating Disabilities Awareness Month: 41) "AI Radio" Demonstrates AI Partnership | Radio WorldSuper Hi-Fi and ElevenLabs promise "incredibly realistic voices." Super Hi-Fi and ElevenLabs have announced a partnership to produce AI DJ services for broadcasters and music services. It's the kind of product that radio people have been fascinated by and worried about: 42) Adjusting To More Vision Loss, Again | Ophthalmic EdgeLosing sight is most often an incremental process, not a one shot deal. Progressive vision loss comes at a pace that allows us to compensate, unlike a sudden, dramatic loss, but both can turn our lives upside down for a time. We might even forget, in the midst of these changes, the power we possess as human beings to tap into our natural resilience. Which is not to say that any of this is easy, and no matter how many times we've adjusted to more vision loss, each
new event can be a significant challenge. The thing to remember is, we can and will adjust, again: 43) Blind Archers Thriving At Brookfield, Milwaukee Archery RangeNot only am I a blind archer, I'm a blind mother: 44) Artificial or Attitude? | Award Winning Sight Loss Coach, Advocate and Author Donna JodhanDonna is at a loss to decide if it all comes down to an attitude or a barrier?

An artificial one where folks use this as a barrier when engaging and communicating: 45) Disability Activists Fight For Equality In The SouthDisability rights activist Dom Kelly says he jokes that he and his triplet brothers started their advocacy work at the ripe age of 4 years old. "My mother put us in front of a room of high school seniors and said 'tell your story, good luck,'" he says. From those early days in the classroom, he took a detour — to become a founding member of the rock band A Fragile Tomorrow. Today, he's back to his roots, leading a new coalition that fights for disability justice across 14 states called New Disabled South: 46) Young Off-Road Racer Ruby Howell Won't Let Vision Issues Stop Her On The TrackRuby's parents were told she'd never drive a car.

She was born deaf and diagnosed with Usher syndrome when she was 21, a condition which means her sight loss will become worse over time and may eventually be lost completely: 48) WME Joins Inevitable Foundation's Push to Empower Disabled Writers | Hollywood ReporterThe Hollywood talent agency will help the non-profit close a disability representation gap in the entertainment industry: ➜ 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.April 4, 2023 | You Are What You Eat, Understanding the Accessibility Menu | TPGi9AM PT, 10AM MT, 11AM CT, 12PM ET, 4PM GMT April 4, 2023 | Online Graduate Programs in Special Education Webinar | Ball State University4PM PT, 5PM MT, 6PM CT, 7PM ET, 11PM GMT April 5, 2023 | Lego Braille Bricks Live Session 7: Music | APH8AM PT, 9AM MT, 10AM CT, 11AM ET, 3PM GMT April 8, 2023 | How To Upgrade To Windows 11 | Technology User Group | Maryland State Library for the Blind and Print Disabled (LBPD)7AM PT, 8AM MT, 9AM CT, 10AM ET, 2PM GMT April 12, 2023 | Understand, Test, Solve: Structure | TPGi9AM PT, 10AM MT, 11AM CT, 12PM ET, 4PM GMT April 12, 2023 | Earn it, Plan it, Keep it | Financial Literacy Course | Maryland State Library for the Blind and Print Disabled3PM PT, 4PM MT, 5PM CT, 6PM ET, 10PM GMT April 13, 2023 | BARD: Open Access | Many Faces of BARD Program4PM PT, 5PM MT, 6PM CT, 7PM ET, 11PM GMT April 18, 2023 | JAWS Inspect Testing for Developers and QA Teams | TPGi9AM PT, 10AM MT, 11AM CT, 12PM ET, 4PM GMT April 19, 2023 | 2023 Helen Keller Achievement Awards | American Foundation for the BlindApril 20, 2023 | Webinar: ADA Legal Update: What Your Restaurant Needs to Know About Digital Accessibility9AM PT, 10AM MT, 11AM CT, 12PM ET, 4PM GMT April 20, 2023 | Book Talk: Digital Copyright | Internet Archive and Author / Professor Jessica Litman10AM PT, 11AM MT, 12PM CT, 1PM ET, 5PM GMT April 25, 2023 | Tech It Out | Monthly Hadley Discussion Group5PM PT, 6PM MT, 7PM CT, 8PM ET, 12AM GMT Next Day April 26, 2023 | How To Build A Positive Credit Score And History | LBPD Financial Literacy Course | Maryland State Library for the Blind and Print Disabled3PM PT, 4PM MT, 5PM CT, 6PM ET, 10PM GMT April 27, 2023 | International Ally User Group7AM PT, 8AM MT, 9AM CT, 10AM ET, 2PM GMT April 28, 2023 | Navigating Finances for Older Individuals With Vision Loss | OIB-TAC12PM PT, 1PM MT, 2PM CT, 3PM ET, 7PM GMT May 3, 2023 | Lego Braille Bricks Live Session 8: STEM | APH8AM PT, 9AM MT, 10AM CT, 11AM ET, 3PM GMT May 9, 2023 through May 12, 2023 | John Slatin AccessU 2023 | KnowbilityJoin us virtually or in Austin, TX.
