Firefox 130 will feature an on-device AI model that automatically generates alt-text for images, integrated into its built-in PDF editor.
New accessibility feature coming to Firefox, an “AI powered” alt-text generator.
"Starting in Firefox 130, we will automatically generate an alt text and let the user validate it. So every time an image is added, we get an array of pixels we pass to the ML engine and a few seconds after, we get a string corresponding to a description of this image (see the code).
…
Our alt text generator is far from perfect, but we want to take an iterative approach and improve it in the open.
…
We are currently working on improving the image-to-text datasets and model with what we’ve described in this blog post…"
I think their might be something wrong with your browser or something. I tried the code blocks using spaces, tabs, and backticks, and I didn’t have the img problem you had.
I also checked from a different account on a different instance on a different browser this post and I can see the link.
Given that it’s not in the comment source I doubt it’s a browser issue. But if you can see it… wtf
When I open the comment in your original instance context it’s there. Your comment was edited. Did you edit it in? I guess it got lost between instance communication lol.
oh god, would suck if it’s another broken Lemmy release
I had other formatting problems with HTML inside code blocks being removed and bleeding out of them generating other closing tags. Maybe that was also related.

I looked through the beehaw instance and I saw what you had screenshot. You are right. It is not your browser, it is the instance.
Currently they currently on 0.18.4. Infosec.pub is currently on 0.19.3. Maybe that’s the issue…
