Response on the Chatpt 4o website:
"What can I help you with regarding this photo? Would you like any edits, descriptions, or information about the contents?"
Me: "describe it"
ChatGPT
The image shows a cozy living room corner with a decorative fireplace. In front of the fireplace, there is a clear glass vase filled with white hydrangea flowers. The fireplace has an ornate, dark wood mantle with intricate carvings. To the right, there is a blue and white porcelain jar with a lid, sitting on a small table. A flat-screen TV is mounted on the wall in the background, next to the jar. The table under the TV is draped with a striped cloth. The overall atmosphere appears elegant and serene, with a mix of modern and classic decor elements.
The response is amazing but is very long and you need an additional prompt to get the description.
Using the New Alt Text Creator / Image Describer for VI users GPT
There is no need to prompt the AI to describe it, you just upload by clicking the paperclip icon and then the response is:
A vase with white hydrangeas is placed on a stone hearth next to a fireplace with intricate carvings. In the background, there is a blue and white ceramic vase on a wooden cabinet and a television on a stand covered with a striped cloth. The room is softly lit by natural light.
This is much more concise and in simpler sentences. It also cuts the superfluous "The image shows" which is unnecessary. This needs more testing by disabled and visually impaired people but I think it is better. I would love feedback.
Currently it is only available to paying users of Chat GPT but I understand that they are currently opening it out to all free users to gpts in the next few weeks.
