Advancing Inclusion – AI-Assisted Media Access
At the Surrey Institute for People-Centred AI, part of the University of Surrey, we have a doctoral centre that is exploring how we improve everybody’s access to digital media. We all use digital media, for news, entertainment, and education. Increasingly, we find ourselves using media for access to critical services such as finance and healthcare, yet a double-digit percentage of the population struggles with the way that media is made available. Our aim is to use AI to create adaptive media that adjusts to people’s needs and preferences, whether meeting an accessibility need, or simply preferring to consume media in a certain way. This talk will explore some of our early successes and show how the third sector can get involved.
