## TL;DR
AI accessibility work is strongest when tied to concrete assistive functions: describing scenes, transcribing speech, and improving speech recognition for people whose voices are poorly served by standard systems.

## Core Explanation
Assistive AI systems combine computer vision, speech recognition, natural language processing, and personalization. The public evidence here supports visual assistance through Seeing AI, live speech-to-text through Android Live Transcribe, and research on speech recognition for non-standard speech through Project Euphonia.
