Best of YouTube: Online Dating, Technology Fatigue & What's The Point Of Apple Vision Pro?

from Double Tap · host Shaun Preece, Steven Scott

It's another chance to catch up with Steven and Shaun's ramblings over on YouTube in this special weekly podcast.First up they dive into the world of online dating. They're joined by Fern Lulham, who shares her experiences with online dating platforms like Plenty of Fish, eHarmony, and Bumble, where the ladies start the conversation. Fern discusses the practicality of online dating for those with visual impairments, the safety concerns, and the decision-making process around disclosing her disability.(Available from 12 seconds)Next up, the conversation shifts to whether technology, specifically AI, is living up to the hype. Steven and Shaun discuss the potential of AI and how it sometimes falls short in practical applications, like ChatGPT's limitations. They ponder whether the tech community is experiencing "technology fatigue" due to high expectations and the constant search for the next big thing.(Available from 25 minutes 19 seconds)And there's a  discussion on Apple's Vision Pro and whether it's a practical investment for blind users. They debate if the blind community should allow Apple to allocate resources to making Vision Pro accessible, or if those resources would be better spent on improving voiceover capabilities on existing devices. They conclude that while not every product may be designed with blind users in mind, it's important to ensure accessibility is still considered.(Available from 38 minutes 47 seconds)Get ahead of the conversation and check out the Double Tap YouTube channel every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday on the platform which you can find using this link: [https://www.youtube.com/@DoubleTapVideo]It's another chance to catch up with Steven and Shaun's ramblings over on YouTube in this special weekly podcast. ----Follow on:YouTube: https://www.doubletaponair.com/youtubeX (formerly Twitter): https://www.doubletaponair.com/xInstagram: https://www.doubletaponair.com/instagramTikTok: https://www.doubletaponair.com/tiktokThreads: https://www.doubletaponair.com/threadsFacebook: https://www.doubletaponair.com/facebookLinkedIn: https://www.doubletaponair.com/linkedinSubscribe to the Podcast:Apple: https://www.doubletaponair.com/appleSpotify: https://www.doubletaponair.com/spotifyRSS: https://www.doubletaponair.com/podcastiHeadRadio: https://www.doubletaponair.com/iheartAbout Double TapHosted by the insightful duo, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, Double Tap is a treasure trove of information for anyone who's blind or partially sighted and has a passion for tech.
