   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.

   Thank you for the detailed feedback everyone. A few specifics worth clarifying:
   Alt text is generated when an image is placed or replaced - not when an existing document is opened. If alt text is appearing in a file you only opened without placing anything, that's a bug we'd want to investigate directly.

   Updates in 21.4:
   - Improved alt text quality across image types, including better handling of icons and graphics - this directly addresses the inaccurate descriptions reported.
   - Fixed an issue where cropped image alt text wasn't generating correctly
   - Enterprise admins can now enable or disable this feature from the admin console, built for regulated and approval-sensitive environments.

   We know that quality and trust in the output are what make this feature worth using. The 21.4 improvements are a step, and raising accuracy will remain a priority.
