  • How Multimodal Large Language Models Support Access to Visual Information: A Diary Study With Blind and Low Vision People

    Ricardo E. Gonzalez Penuela, Crescentia Jung, Sharon Lin, Ruiying Hu, Shiri Azenkot · 2026 · Proceedings of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '26)

    This CHI 2026 paper reports a two-week diary study with 20 Blind and Low Vision (BLV) participants (ages 19–75, 11 female/9 male, 13 blind/7 low vision) investigating how multimodal large language models (MLLMs) support real-world access to visual information. The authors built…

  • Say It My Way: Exploring Control in Conversational Visual Question Answering with Blind Users

    Farnaz Zamiri Zeraati, Yang Cao, Yuehan Qiao, Hal Daumé III, Hernisa Kacorri · 2026 · Proceedings of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '26)

    This CHI 2026 paper investigates how blind users can exert control over responses generated by conversational visual question answering (VQA) systems built on vision-language models. While prompting and steering techniques are well established in general-purpose generative AI,…
