Alt Text Creator 1.2 is now available!

Earlier this year, I released Alt Text Creator, a browser extension that can generate alternative text for images by right-clicking them, using OpenAI's GPT-4 with Vision model. The new v1.2 update is now rolling out, with support for OpenAI's newer AI models and a new custom server option.

Alt Text Creator can now use OpenAI's latest GPT-4o Mini or GPT-4o AI models for processing images, which are faster and cheaper than the original GPT-4 with Vision model that the extension previously used (and will soon be deprecated by OpenAI). You should be able to generate alt text for several images with less than $0.01 in API billing. Alt Text Creator still uses an API key provided by the user, and uses the low resolution option, so it runs at the lowest possible cost with the user's own API billing.

This update also introduces the ability to use a custom server instead of OpenAI. The LM Studio desktop application now supports downloading AI models with vision abilities to run locally, and can enable a web server to interact with the AI model using an OpenAI-like API. Alt Text Creator can now connect to that server (and theoretically other similar API limitations), allowing you to create alt text entirely on-device without paying OpenAI for API access.

The feature is a bit complicated to set up, is slower than OpenAI's API (unless you have an incredibly powerful PC), and requires leaving LM Studio open, so I don't expect many people will use this option for now. I primarily tested it with the Llava 1.5 7B model on a 16GB M1 Mac Mini, and it was about half the speed of an OpenAI request (8 vs 4 seconds for one example) while having generally lower-quality results.

You can download Alt Text Creator for Chrome and Firefox, and the source code is on GitHub. I still want to look into support for other AI models, like Google's Gemini, and the option for the user to change the prompt, but I wanted to get these changes out soon before GPT-4 Vision was deprecated.

An important part of this article on how students are using AI to think and write for them - even when they’re supposed to be writing about a personal experience or assigned a simple task - is the intentionality with which AI companies are targeting younger and younger students, getting them hooked on having AI think for them until they reach the point where, as this teacher said, a senior in high school claimed he couldn’t write one sentence without using Grammarly. It’s alarming that this student has limited his own abilities in his mind to what a bot can do for him, even though the task is something even a small child can accomplish with effort. That’s like saying you can’t make a grocery list without AI - of course you can, if you choose to try, and you’d almost definitely do a better job.

From the article;

Unfortunately, it’s becoming harder to teach them that their ideas have value because they’ve subcontracted out their minds to their screens. They get their news on TikTok and YouTube and do their shopping based on ads they see in between the videos they watch.

One of my students told me there was no point to writing anymore for my class because now “AI just does it for us.” He doesn’t value the writing process because — despite how hard I’m trying — he’s constantly being bombarded with messages that he shouldn’t.

Whether it’s an advertisement for Grammarly on YouTube encouraging my students to add its new Chrome extension on their Google Docs or a video on TikTok enticing them to download the latest version of ChatGPT, my kids are constantly inundated with carefully curated messages that encourage them to be passive consumers in the classroom.

The messaging they receive is so strategically targeted to my students, it can give them a false sense of who they are, while at the same time increasing their dependence on these products.

It’s working. I see it every day. One of my 12th-graders told me he “can’t write even one sentence without Grammarly.”

“ChatGPT is right there with me all the time,” another student said, “like a friend.”

(…)

Educational institutions continue to uncritically embrace AI, moving at lightning speed to bring it into classrooms without thinking through its dangers, limitations and consequences. AI wasn’t designed for schools, yet we continue to operate as though it was.

Things are, however, looking great for Big Tech companies, who are earning billions of dollars to get our students to outsource their minds, thereby losing the ability to think critically.

Essay Editing Tips When Using a Computer

I created this for a tutoring student, but I thought it was helpful, so I posted it here for anyone who wants to use it. I also posted it in the community @@writing-tea-tips Tip 1: Change the Font

One simple yet effective way to catch mistakes while editing is to change the font of your essay.

Write your initial draft in Times New Roman, Arial, or Courier New—these fonts are easier to read on a screen.

When revising or editing, switch to a different font. Our brains tend to "glaze over" familiar text, which can cause us to overlook simple mistakes. Changing the font forces us to see the text in a new way.

Try changing the font size to something exaggerated, like 24 pt or 30 pt. This helps bring attention to errors we might otherwise miss.

Tip 2: Use Colors to Organize Your Edits

One advantage of editing on a computer is the ability to use colors and formatting tools to track revisions.

Here’s a simple color-coding system you can use while editing:

Yellow highlight → Mark your thesis statement.

Green highlight → Identify repetitive words or phrases.

Red text → Flag words or sentences you're unsure about.

Blue text → Mark information from outside sources that will need citations.

Bold text → Mark spots where in-text citations will go (since citation formatting is very specific, it’s best to add them after finalizing the content).

This method helps you visualize areas that need work and prevents you from overlooking key details.

Tip 3: Master Google Docs Formatting

Many students don’t fully take advantage of Google Docs tools, which can make writing and editing much more manageable.

If you're unfamiliar with these tools, I highly recommend:

Watching a YouTube tutorial on Google Docs formatting.

Spending 5-10 minutes experimenting with different features.

Here are the most useful tools for essay writing, in my opinion:

Bullet Points & Numbering: Essential for outlining essays.

Bold, Italic, Underline, Text Color, Highlighting: Helps with organization and clarity.

Align & Indent + Line Spacing: Adjusting spacing makes editing easier. Hanging indents are crucial for formatting a Works Cited page.

Insert Page Breaks, Headers/Footers, Page Numbers: Helps structure longer essays properly.

If you need help with any of these tools, I can review them with you!

Tip 4: Read Your Essay Out Loud (or Use AI Tools)

Reading your essay out loud is one of the best ways to catch awkward phrasing, missing words, or grammatical errors.

Options for reading aloud:

Read it yourself – but be sure to pause at commas, stop at periods, and follow punctuation exactly.

Use a text-to-speech tool – Google Chrome extensions can read your essay aloud in a robotic AI voice. It sounds awful, but it helps.

Record yourself reading and listen back. This follows the same rules as reading out loud, though, so follow the punctuation exactly. (Though if you hate hearing your own voice, this may not be for you.)

Using AI as a Tool (Not a Shortcut)

AI tools like ChatGPT, Grammarly, Notebook LM, and Perplexity can help streamline the writing process, but using AI to write your paper for you is plagiarism and will have serious consequences in both school and work.

If you’re interested in using AI responsibly, we can discuss the right way to use it as a tool for brainstorming, rewording, and improving clarity without committing academic dishonesty.

Final Thoughts

Editing is an essential part of writing. These simple strategies—changing fonts, using colors, exploring Google Docs tools, and reading aloud—will help you catch more mistakes and strengthen your writing.

Happy editing! ✍️😊

Tools I use for learning languages

Since the core concept of how I learn languages is by understanding "messages", there's really only one tool that I actually need: a translator. Well maybe two if you count search engine or chatgpt for looking for some explanation on grammar points. That said, I use several tools (usually in the form of chrome extensions), basically to streamline the process, to make the process easier and faster so that I have more time to actually learn the language, not wasting my time on, for example, going back and forth between my learning materials and a translation website and copying and pasting sentences every time.

1. Mouse Tooltip Translator

This is my main tool that if I can only have 1 chrome extension I'll probably choose this. What it does is actually really simple, I wonder why there's nothing like this anywhere else: it gives you a popup translation of a word that you're hovering on. That's it.

But I think what makes it even more powerful is that you can tweak some settings. Like you can, instead of a word, translate a sentence at a time. You still want to look up word by word but sometimes phrase by phrase, sentence by sentence, even a whole paragraph? Just turn on selection translation. That way, when you're hovering on a word, it will translate by word, but when you're selecting some text, it will give you the translation of whatever you're selecting. It uses external translation machine like Google Translate, Deepl etc so it basically works the same way, what you select or hover is just like what you copy and paste into the translator. Pretty neat to me.

It also has several extra features, like Youtube dual subs etc but I personally don't use everything because I prefer 'one tool one function' tools so that it's not so overwhelming and easier to keep track if one malfunctions.

Speaking of malfunctions, lately the tools often experience errors and not showing you the translation, even though the translation machine websites are all okay. So that's why I use some backup tools just in case this one is not working right.

2. Edge Translate

I used this one before I found the Mouse Tooltip one. It basically works the same way like Mouse Tooltip, but it doesn't have the translate-on-hover feature, so you have to at least select the texts you want to translate. But other things that I used this for is translating PDF. I tried to use some other popup translation extensions, but none of them can actually translate a PDF that I'm opening with chrome. I don't know the technical details but it seems that when you're opening a PDF with chrome it's like a different kind of chrome that doesn't have all your extensions. So what this Edge Translate does is it acts as a PDF reader so that you can use the translator as well (Mouse Tooltip actually also has this function so it easily replaces Edge Translate)

I haven't used this tool for quite a while and it seems they're closing soon?

3. asbplayer

I use asbplayer when I'm learning with Youtube (they can also be used on Netflix but I'm not learning with Netflix right now). Some of its features are, it allows you to use dual subtitles, to use external subtitles for Youtube and Netflix, and it makes the workflow of making Anki cards easier. However what I personally use it for is only to make Youtube subtitles selectable so I can make use of the Mouse Tooltip Translator 😂

And I think that's basically all the tools that I use. I'm not including the tools or websites that I use to get contents that I actually use in my learning, maybe I will make a post about it too in the future. In the meantime, chau~

Absolutely hating this new genre of teaching. Students, you must install a pop quiz app on your phone that was designed for iPhones! Install a note-sharing extension but it only works in Chrome! Use chatgpt on your readings and then properly read the material and compare! These are not optional!

Introducing Alt Text Creator

Images on web pages are supposed to have alternate text, which gives screen readers, search engines, and other tools a text description of the image. Alt text is critical for accessibility and search engine optimization (SEO), but it can also be time-consuming, which is why I am releasing Alt Text Creator!

Alt Text Creator is a new browser extension for Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome (and other browsers that can install from the Chrome Web Store) that automatically generates alt text for image using the OpenAI GPT-4 with Vision AI. You just right-click any image, select "Create Alt Text" in the context menu, and a few seconds later the result will appear in a notification. The alt text is automatically copied to your clipboard, so it doesn't interrupt your workflow with another button to click.

I've been using a prototype version of this extension for about three months (my day job is News Editor at How-To Geek), and I've been impressed by how well the GPT-4 AI model describes text. I usually don't need to tweak the result at all, except to make it more specific. If you're curious about the AI prompt and interaction, you can check out the source code. Alt Text Creator also uses the "Low Resolution" mode and saves a local cache of responses to reduce usage costs.

I found at least one other browser extension with similar functionality, but Alt Text Creator is unique for two reasons. First, it uses your own OpenAI API key that you provide. That means the initial setup is a bit more annoying, but the cost is based on usage and billed directly through OpenAI. There's no recurring subscription, and ChatGPT Plus is not required. In my own testing, creating alt text for a single image costs under $0.01. Second, the extension uses as few permissions as possible—it doesn't even have access to your current tab, just the image you select.

This is more of a niche tool than my other projects, but it's something that has made my work a bit less annoying, and it might help a few other people too. I might try to add support for other AI backends in the future, but I consider this extension feature-complete in its current state.

This also goes for things like... Basic problem solving; curiosity and being interested in how things work; being able to help people calm down; being able to explain stuff that's complex; actually wanting to help people; being the kind of person who solves little problems without being told to; doing good sleuthing or research; googling things you don't understand and picking out reputable sources to give you a good 5-minute education; asking good questions; taking feedback without taking it personally; keeping your tasks organized, and more.

These are not actually things that everyone can or wants to do. ESPECIALLY if you can find ways to quantify these things and/or turn them into a compelling story, that will be a huge help looking for a job.

Example: I am the type of person who fixes stuff that bothers me without being asked. I first noticed this when I was working at a popular chain pizza place in my teens. We were supposed to mark pizza boxes with a sharpie, which was kept on a wire shelf where the gaps were big enough for the sharpie to fall through, for some reason. During our busy hours, people tossed the sharpie up there and it would fall down, obviously.

So one day when it was a little slow, I grabbed a piece of parchment paper and ripped and folded it until it fit on the shelf. Problem solved! No more falling sharpie. (Honestly I probably wouldn't remember this story if that was the end of it; when I came in for my next shift, the paper was gone. It bugged me for the rest of my time there.)

That type of thing is what you can tell people about in an interview to show them the type of person and employee you are. I used that story many years ago. Now I'm telling a similar story about how I built a chrome extension for my coworkers to solve some of our common problems. It's the same thing.

Don't devalue your own skills. You gotta brag about them with all the confidence of someone who knows that not every person on this planet can calm people down or know not to ask chatgpt their questions. Good luck out there

I just want to say, if you've ever worked a low-level office job and thought 'wow this is piss-easy', that's not a sign that the work you were doing is objectively easier than other types of work, it's a sign that you were good at it.

by which I don't mean 'stop de-valuing office work' bcos that's not a real problem, no-one is doing that, I just feel like a lot of young people aren't aware that e.g. being able to type fast and accurately, open up a computer program you've never used before and figure it out unaided, are marketable skills, not things that 'everyone' knows how to do.

I've worked in 'easy' office jobs for 6 years now and believe me, some people are bad at them & do not find them easy.

Today I am doing one thing that I have not been doing for about 10 years!

I’m trying to build a chrome extension as my eCommerce tools but instead of code it myself I’m getting ChatGPT to do it for me. It reminds me of those days I’m writing BOT for my RPG game. Passion really above everything.

I more into sales & marketing instead of coding but chatGPT changes everything. I don’t have to remember single line of code. Just need to know how to communicate with ChatGPT. Someone just needs the basic of IT and knows how to debug. I managed to get it working in just one day although still a lot of bugs. Haha. Imagine 1 month of work can be done in just 2-3 days. Now already version 6.1 in just one day!

Let’s see if I can make it perfect and it will be useful tool for every eCommerce sellers. I’m just using it for my own company but who knows I might even consider selling it. 😂
