Today on Double Tap, the conversation covers recent updates in AI technology and accessibility features, focusing on Seeing AI's new interface, Apple's new ‘Invites’ app, Microsoft Power Toys, and Sonos's new streaming player coming soon.

The hosts discuss the implications of these updates for users, particularly in the context of accessibility and user experience, particularly in streaming hardware and apps like Sonos and Tapestry.

An email from listener Gavin prompts a discussion on the importance of inclusive design, after he recently moved into a new build property that had inaccessible appliances built in. The conversation that follows highlights the ongoing fight for better accessibility features and the necessity for companies to prioritize usability over aesthetics.
