They discuss how structured data and knowledge graphs can revolutionize digital information. Denny details the development his current project, Abstract Wikipedia, which aims to create articles using language-independent identifiers. By using symbolic logic rather than the probabilistic methods of Large Language Models, this system allows a single edit to propagate across over 300 languages simultaneously. Ultimately, the goal is to make knowledge more accessible by allowing it to be represented in various reading levels and formats.

Launched by Service Now and the GAAD Foundation in May 2025, AIMAC is an open‑source framework designed to evaluate how accurately different AI models generate accessible HTML code. AIMAC prompts 37 models to generate pages across 28 categories with no accessibility guidance. Then it runs Axe-core, the accessibility testing engine used by Microsoft, Google, and most major tech companies, to count violations against WCAG 2.2 Level AA (the standard required by US and EU accessibility laws). Jennison Asuncion (Head of Accessibility at LinkedIn and Co-Founder of GAAD) joins Eamon and Joe to demonstrate how he uses a screen reader and reveals how common AI coding errors, such as missing alt text or unlabeled form fields, create barriers for blind users.
