1. Generative AI - Alt Text and other AI Features

   These features should be turned off by default. Most users do not want generated content being automatically inserted into production documents without review or approval. If users do want AI assistance, it should be opt-in, with clear choices such as:

   Generate descriptions for all images
   Generate descriptions for selected images only
   Approve descriptions on a case-by-case basis

   I do not think automatically inserting generated content into live production files is a good approach.

   In real-world workflows especially regulated, accessibility, publishing, legal, pharmaceutical, or corporate environments every word often needs to be reviewed, approved, and sometimes audited. AI-generated alt text can absolutely be useful as a starting point, but it should never silently become part of the document unless the user explicitly accepts it.

   There is also the risk of inaccurate, inappropriate, misleading, or non-compliant content being introduced into documents without the user immediately noticing. That could create serious problems for regulated workflows, accessibility compliance, approvals, translations, and version-controlled production environments.

   AI should assist the user, not bypass existing review and sign-off processes.

   Gen Alt Text is turned ON by default. Users are informed the first time an image is placed to turn it off with a clear CTA.

   
   

   Closing this as As Designed.
