A Profound Moment with a Blind Client ๐Ÿ™Œ

I had one of those moments that really stops you in your tracks.

I was working with a blind client, helping him set up the latest AI tools connected to the camera on his smartphone. After some coaching and configuration, we got it working so he could walk around, point the phone at objects โ€” and the AI would describe exactly what it was seeing.

But the moment that hit me?

He pointed the phone at his wall โ€” where family photos were hanging. The AI started describing the pictures: who was standing, who was sitting, that there was a dinner, even that it was a party. He listened quietly as the photos came to life through spoken words.

It was powerful. He could now "see" those moments again โ€” independently โ€” through voice.

This new generation of AI is genuinely incredible. If youโ€™re working with someone whoโ€™s blind, or facing cognitive or physical barriers, know that this tech can transform lives when set up properly.

If youโ€™d like help getting it configured for someone, feel free to reach out. Iโ€™m happy to support where I can.
