   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.

   As somebody who does research reports and just discovered that Adobe is inserting completely inaccurate alt text to describe our figures (without our consent), I could not agree more with this. What a terrible user experience, terrible use of AI, terrible for accessibility. Please, please, please make this all Opt-In. The worst part is the place where I'm supposedly able to disable it doesn't exist for me in InDesign. UGGGGGG
