In this white paper, Blake Steineke, Product Marketing Manager for Aira, explores the essential role of human verification in improving AI for blind and low-vision users. Aira's Access AI offers real-time image descriptions to assist with daily tasks, but, like many AI systems, it faces challenges with "hallucinations" — inaccurate or fabricated information. To address this, Aira Verify introduces human-in-the-loop verification, where professional visual interpreters review and correct AI-generated descriptions, boosting trust and reliability. Research shows that 42.5% of verified sessions contain inaccuracies corrected by human interpreters, proving the need for human oversight. The white paper highlights how blending AI with human verification can improve accuracy across critical tasks, providing users greater confidence in these tools. Steineke advocates for integrating human verification across assistive technologies to ensure accuracy and inclusivity, setting a standard for future AI-driven accessibility solutions.
