Applies to

Public-facing websites and digital content. AI-generated assets are not exempt from accessibility expectations.

Business impact

Accessibility disputes continue to create risk for public-facing digital businesses. AI-generated content does not remove those obligations.

Disclosure relevance

Accessibility is a distinct obligation from AI disclosure — but AI-generated images, video, and copy still must meet it.

Metadata relevance

Alt text and structured descriptions are metadata; AI-generated assets need them just like any other.

Key obligations

  • Meet WCAG 2.2 success criteria for perceivable, operable, understandable, robust content
  • Provide alt text, sufficient contrast, keyboard navigation, and accessible media
