Through a Different Lens: Fatherhood, AI, and Accessibility with Gregg Hayes

Keith connects with Gregg Hayes—an Accessibility Tech Specialist, blind father, and the dad of Keith's good friend, whom he originally met through connection at The Meadows. Gregg shares his unique perspective on navigating fatherhood without sight and dives into the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence. Together, they break down the groundbreaking ways AI tools are expanding independence and visual access for the blind community, while also tackling the critical flipsides: bias, overreliance, privacy concerns, and the fear of losing essential human support systems. It's a nuanced conversation on disability empowerment, technological progress, and maintaining independence in an automated world.
