Building Accessible Web Experiences with AI was conceived as more than a technical manual-it is a bridge between disciplines, generations of technology, and philosophies of design. At its heart lies a simple conviction: that technology should serve everyone, not merely those who can adapt to its conventions.
For decades, digital accessibility was framed primarily as a matter of compliance-a box to be checked to meet legal standards such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). While compliance remains critical, it does not capture the full essence of inclusion. True accessibility is about equity, empathy, and awareness. It is about designing systems that acknowledge the full spectrum of human diversity-visual, auditory, motor, cognitive, and situational.
This book invites developers, designers, and digital professionals to rethink accessibility not as a constraint but as a catalyst for creativity. It presents artificial intelligence not as a threat or shortcut but as an ally-a means to scale inclusion, enhance efficiency, and illuminate patterns that human perception alone might miss.
The primary goal of Building Accessible Web Experiences with AI is educational: to equip practitioners at every level with the conceptual understanding and technical tools to create inclusive, intelligent experiences that evolve with their users.
