#AI is a marketing term; before we discuss "AI is fake" vs "AI is real" we need to unfold what we *mean* by AI.
For example, "artificial general intelligence" is fake and can't hurt you. Layoffs excused by "AI efficiency" are real and can hurt you.
Linkedin discourse is fake - but it CAN hurt you.

Auto-complete: real, can't hurt you
Super-intelligence: not real, can't hurt you
Layoffs: real, can hurt you
LinkedIn: not real, can hurt you.

目で画像を見ている人は、その人が既に知っている情報やコンテキストを加味して理解するので、
たとえば有名な人や、アニメのキャラクターなどは、人物の姿形ではなくて、即座に自分の知っている対象として認知する。
信号機やポスト、横断歩道をみて、それらの形状を説明されるより、信号機、ポスト、横断歩道と説明してほしいし、人物やキャラなら名前と帰属情報などが欲しい。
天気予報士の石原さん、カールビンソンのコロナちゃん、とか。
でも、誰も知らないだろう対象で、本文で言及されていない存在について、詳しすぎてもかえって情報が欠落する。
カールビンソンのコロナちゃんは、たぶんほとんどの人が知らないので、小柄で幼い女の子、と説明された方が適切だったりする。

After nuclear weapons testing began in 1945, atmospheric radiation contaminated new steel production worldwide.
For decades, scientists needing radiation-free metal for sensitive instruments had to salvage steel from pre-war shipwrecks.
Scientists called this steel
"low-background steel."

コンテキスト:最適な代替テキストを書くのは難しいねって話題
AIが画像の説明を(代理で)書くっていうのは悪くない方向性だと思うけど、そのままじゃなくて、画像の投稿者が軽くチェックして、訂正を入れられた方がいいね。
『大理石の床の上にある〜』とAIに説明されたときに、「それ床じゃなくてテーブル」って直せた方がいい。
もちろん自分で書ける・書きたい場合、必ずAIを使う必要はないけど、
それでも、代替テキストに対して専門性を持ったAIが手本を提示すれば、平均的な質の向上が期待できるという面もある。
適切な代替テキスト、ある程度慣れ・訓練が必要なもので、難しいからね。
