Google AI can now answer your questions about uncaptioned images
for Android with an"image question and answer" feature that uses DeepMind-developed AI to elaborate on descriptions of images with no captions or alt text. If the app sees a dog, for example, you can ask if that pup is playful. Google is inviting a handful of people with blindness and low vision to test the feature, with plans to expand the audience"soon."
It will also be easier to get around town if you use a wheelchair — or a stroller, for that matter. Google Maps is expanding wheelchair-accessible labels to everyone, so you'll know if there's a step-free entrance before you show up. If a location doesn't have a friendly entrance, you'll see an alert as well as details for other accommodations to help you decide whether or not a place is worth the journey.A handful of minor updates could still be helpful.

Supreme Court sidesteps challenge to internet companies’ broad protections from lawsuitsThe Supreme Court has sidestepped a case against Google that might have allowed more lawsuits against social media companies. The justices on Thursday returned to a lower court the case of a family of an American college student who was killed in an Islamic State terrorist attack in Paris. The family wants to sue Google for YouTube videos they said helped attract Islamic State recruits and radicalize them. Google owns YouTube. Google claims immunity from the lawsuit under a 1996 law that generally shields social media company for content posted by others. The outcome is a victory for the tech industry, which predicted havoc on the internet if Google lost. But the high court remains free to take up the issue in a later case.
