Be My AI

An AI-powered feature within the Be My Eyes app that uses GPT-4o to provide on-demand image descriptions for blind and low vision users. Users can take a photo or upload an image and receive a detailed AI-generated description, replacing the need to connect with a sighted volunteer for many tasks. Be My AI represents the shift from human-powered to AI-powered visual assistance and is one of the most widely used MLLM-powered accessibility tools. While it provides convenient, instant descriptions, users should be aware that AI descriptions may contain errors, particularly with complex images, charts, or images requiring spatial reasoning.
