Chrome Extension to Enhance Accessibility of ChatGPT Web Interface

ChatGPT

Howdy all,

I’m a blind developer and I’ve found some aspects of using the ChatGPT web interface a bit challenging with a screen reader. In the spirit of proposing solutions, not just problems, I whipped up a little proof of concept Chrome extension that aims to address some of the accessibility issues I experience with the ChatGPT interface.
If you’re a developer and this kind of thing interests you, I’d welcome collaboration! If you’re a blind or low vision ChatGPT user, perhaps this could make your experience a bit easier. Finally, this can kind of serve as a document of the current accessibility deficiencies in the current ChatGPT UI as well as examples of how to solve some of these deficiencies, that perhaps OpenAI could consider as they continue to evolve the site.

This is a great idea. Did you get any feedback from it?

part of the problem is that OpenAI are using React (or whatever) which makes very opaque and heavyweight pages.

Maybe we could build an extension that actually blows away the whole UI and makes something that could use plugins and actually structurally useful html / etc

anyway did you get anywhere with this?
