    Sure, and yes, it’s literally doing what alt text would do, for the same purpose (i.e. describe the image for the visually impaired). The “style” of these that I’ve seen (not just here) is pretty verbose, so I don’t think that’s necessarily an indication of llm use. Obviously I can’t prove it either way, but I’d rather give these the benefit of the doubt, since this is useful work if it helps people follow along.

      The visually impaired don’t really get anything from descriptions like “in a wider shot” though, nor is “now with no visible mouth” a relevant detail because the style of the comic does not depict any character with a mouth unless they are speaking. That’s LLM logic.

        Yeah, that’s fair. The mouth description probably seals it for me. I think it’d be more useful to describe the overall “nonplussed” expression than the literal description.
