Yelp's new accessibility features like being able to search for an ADA-compliant entrance or a sports bar with closed captions on the TV should benefit many people with disabilities. Hopefully, they ensure that the features claimed by the restaurants are accurate. Also, I think the AI-generated alt-text description should be shown to the user who has taken the photo so it can be edited. AI-generated alt-text is prone to errors like auto-generated captions.
