JAWS Power Tip: How To Use the New Picture Smart AI Keystroke to Describe an Image in Context

In the July update of JAWS 2024, we added a new keystroke to describe an image based on your current application or context. This eliminates the need to remember which keystroke to use when you need a description of a control or application window.

JAWS has added an AI feature that can describe images. Users can activate the feature by Pressing INSERT+SPACEBAR, P, then ENTER. It can be used to describe what is being displayed on the screen. It is not perfect but a way of getting additional information when no alt text is available. I believe this kind of AI feature may eventually become standard across screen reading software.
