• “Accessibility Request: advanced ChatGPT access for people with disabilities. I’d like to suggest that OpenAI consider creating an accessibility program that provides people with qualifying disabilities reduced cost or supported access to advanced ChatGPT capabilities.

Before my stroke, I had a long professional career, but now ChatGPT helps me with finding words, writing, understanding complex information, communicating.

Thank you. 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic”
