Baidu AI has recently launched the barrier-free version of Wenxin Kuai Ma, an innovative tool designed to assist visually impaired IT professionals in overcoming challenges encountered during programming, thereby enhancing their work efficiency.
The release of the barrier-free version of Wenxin Kuai Ma is a result of the collaboration between Baidu's intelligent code assistant and the Information Accessibility Research Association, reflecting Baidu's efforts to promote social inclusivity through artificial intelligence technology.
While programming is feasible for visually impaired individuals, they face numerous obstacles. Traditional screen reader software cannot retrieve image information, and the answers found often lack robust support, causing visually impaired developers to spend significant time and energy during product development.
The introduction of the barrier-free version of Wenxin Kuai Ma allows visually impaired individuals to quickly grasp the essence of code by converting it into smooth natural language and provides convenient commands to help users quickly locate the code segments that need modification. Users can directly describe their requirements in natural language, and Wenxin Kuai Ma can generate dozens or even hundreds of lines of executable code instantly.
As the first coding tool in the country to support barrier-free development, Wenxin Kuai Ma enables visually impaired developers to better utilize large model capabilities by quickly locating code lines, finding code resources, and completing a series of development tasks through commands, natural language, and shortcut keys.
The launch of this tool not only represents a technological advancement but also exemplifies Baidu AI's concrete practice in promoting technology that warms the heart and supports special groups.
