Pas expert sur le processus d’auto édition, mais à ta disposition si tu as des questions sur le format EPUB et son accessibilité ! (je suis dans le groupe de travail EPUB, je maîtrise bien le sujet :).

Donc parfois "Le Alex" mais "L’Alex Bidulechouette" quand on ajoute le nom de famille.

Et si vous écoutiez les plus concernés, à savoir les personnes handicapées ? #validisme
Ça émeut de mettre en place des mécanismes eugénistes ?

Dans le contexte fasciste actuel, il me semble important plus que jamais de le rappeler : le validisme ça n'est pas qu'une question de "regard à changer", ce sont des morts, ce sont des meurtres.

that said, it's not all grim. Structural power can be reclaimed. Sustainability can be improved. AI can (probably will) have its use and role to play! But never forget the environmental and political context. And think about people and equal access, always.

- balance of power: a11y is a human right, it's about social justice. The structural power of AI is largely owned by big tech that are mostly authoritarian. In times where fascism is at the door, I can't honestly trust AI for anything critical to those who—again—will be the first victims.

but I forgot 2 crucial aspects (my personal opinion)
- sustainability: the environmental cost of AI development is huge—we, as a species, should be wary about that. Global warming implies a raise in catastrophic events, inequality, and the first victims are disabled people. Counter-productive.
