Facebook's Automatic Alternative Text feature offers image captions to assist visually impaired users. However, the automatic image recognition and captioning system has limitations and can overlook important content and context. It typically lists recognizable objects in a mechanical way, such as "one person, smiling" or "person, outdoor, nature." Seeing Like a Computer highlights these shortcomings with a sampling of snapshots from Mark Zuckerbergâs Facebook timeline.
