Facebook's Efforts to Help Connect People With Disabilities
The social media company is using A.I. to make content on its site more accessible and connect people with disabilities to helpful communities.
"We are working on making it possible for essentially anybody to connect with anybody," says Matt King, an engineer at Facebook who lost his sight in college. He is also a three-time Paralympian and a record-breaking tandem cyclist.
Facebook's accessibility efforts are part of a wider commitment from tech companies, including Microsoft and Apple, to make their products easier to use.
