Can generative AI help us to work smarter in Digital Accessibility?

In this presentation at the University of Kent's recent Digitally Enhanced Education Webinar<https://matthewdeeprose.github.io/genAI_a11y_efficiency.html>, I shared how I've been using Copilot, Whisper and Claude for the following scenarios:

* Creating sample content for remediation in training sessions.
* Different approaches to creating transcripts.
* Creating accessible flow charts.
* Rapidly prototyping a web-based tool to help academic staff make more accessible content.

The presentation recording has automated captions. I've prepared a written transcript for those who prefer it<https://matthewdeeprose.github.io/genAI_a11y_efficiency__transcript.html>.

The first half of the presentation covers similar ground to what I covered when I last shared an AI and accessibility presentation<https://matthewdeeprose.github.io/harnessCopilot.html>, the second half is new content.

Happy to receive feedback and hope to learn how you have been using tools like this in the digital accessibility sphere.
