Understand what you’re looking at and follow speech in real time using captions. Learn about new AI tech with expert Bridget Burke. Join us for a clear, beginner-friendly AI vision guide.

Reading tiny print, understanding what's on labels, and trying to catch every word in a noisy room can make everyday life more stressful than it needs to be. 

In this fun, hands-on class, AI Expert Bridget Burke will explore how today’s AI-powered vision tools can support independence by helping you read small text, understand what you’re looking at, and even follow speech in real time using captions right on your phone.

She will demo easy, practical, senior-friendly features on your phone that can magnify, read text out loud, and turn speech into live captions, plus highlight what’s new in accessible wearables and “smart” vision glasses. 

Join us for clear explanations and a smart checklist to help you make informed choices.
