Explore the accessibility of ChatGPT Atlas and other AI browsers for blind users, with insights from Taylor Arndt of Tecopolis. Learn why ChatGPT Atlas scores just 1/10 for screen reader access and how alternatives like Perplexity Comet and Google Notebook LM could transform daily tasks for blind tech users.

Steven Scott and Shaun Preece are joined by Taylor Arndt, Chief Accessibility and Operations Officer at Techopolis, to discuss the rise of AI browsers and their impact on accessibility. Taylor explains why ChatGPT Atlas, OpenAI’s new AI-powered browser, is virtually unusable for screen reader users, citing unlabelled buttons, inaccessible onboarding, and non-decorative background images.

The conversation explores how Perplexity Comet delivers a more promising and inclusive experience, with agentic AI features that help automate tasks like editing websites, booking travel, and managing social media. Taylor also introduces Google’s Notebook LM, a tool for grounded AI learning, which can transform inaccessible educational content into interactive, accessible resources for blind learners.

Hear real-world examples of AI in action, discover the potential of local versus cloud-based AI for privacy and reliability, and learn how Techopolis supports accessible Apple app development and coding education for blind users.
