For this game, you should be using the inbuilt Discourse ‘Caption with AI’ option in your composer preview that shows up when you hover over the image:

Main challenge is to post only “the best” caption, will say that is this one:

This is a historical map titled “A general PLAN of the Town of Annapolis Royal in Nova Scotia,” surveyed by Captain Hamilton in 1753, depicting detailed fortifications, the town layout, surrounding landscape features, and a compass rose. (Captioned by AI)

Can help if this can translate handwriting to text in more than just captions.

I don’t have the resources to play with the big kids, maybe you can caption for me :pensive:

You should have that feature (it’s currently on TL2), though it looks like you used a link rather than uploading an image. When it gets automatically downloaded you can open it up in edit mode and see the option (or try it with an uploaded image).


Hmm. That still doesn’t seem to be an option even after it pulled it in locally. :thinking:

I think it’s because it lacks dimensions so doesn’t get the hover options in the preview to resize, etc.

If I add some made up ones then the options appear.

My daughter dancing with our dog 10 years ago while we were out for a walk.
She is 17 now and our dog is 12.

An image created by AI and captioned by AI? :thinking:

An anthropomorphic duck dressed as a vintage pilot is seated in a military aircraft, with fighter planes and mountainous landscapes in the background. (Captioned by AI)

I took your caption and generated an image from it

Here’s the AI caption for an AI generated image from an AI caption generated from an AI image:

An anthropomorphic duck, wearing a classic pilot outfit, confidently controls a fighter plane amidst a formation flying over mountainous terrain.

Surprisingly consistent.

Although, not incorrect in it’s description, I think the AI has somewhat missed the point. Perhàps, I am expecting too much from the AI to get the nuances of expression depicting motherhood :woman_shrugging:t2::joy:.

Side bumping this with


Is there any proper survey of people with vision difficulty or using screenreaders, as to whether they feel this is a step forward? Perhaps comparing three cases

  • a community where the users have understood that it’s good to caption images
  • a community where the users are more average in their captioning
  • a community that’s used automatic captioning as seen here

What are captions for? Surely they are for accessibility. Is there a voice here discussing the accessibility angle? Discussing how the community culture is affected by introducing automatic captions?
