alt Hacker NewsI believe AI can be huge here. Things like ADA are often mechanical (adding the correct attributes to the most important page elements). It is the perfect work to audit and fix using agents.
It is a business opportunity as well. I worked at a company that paid for an audit before LLMs. There is tremendous cost savings possible here.
I also wonder if WebMCP will be the ultimate final incarnation of this.

Using AI to close gaps in accessibility is like adding treads to your vehicle because society is too lazy to pave roads.

Do you know one of the most underemployed groups are disabled people? And do you know where a number of disabled people get employment? Disability audits (unsurprisingly they're extremely good at this).
Congratulations on recommending further marginalising an extremely marginalised group.
