An interesting new feature that I've only just noticed has been added to @MonaApp:
Adding an image from your Photos library to which you have already added a Caption (in Photos) automatically adds that caption as your image description/alt-text in Mona.
The video shows this in action (nb the centre bit where I locate the photo has been edited to remove personal content).
@JonnyT@MonaApp@main I really like the feature but I never use captions in my photos 🤷♂️ This would be for me a perfect example for AI usage, as I tend to forget the caption nearly every time.
@flschr@main@MonaApp I've started using captions in Photos as a means to store the alt-texts I write for here. That way they're available to me should I want to use them again in the future or somewhere else (eg in a non-Mona app; I cross-post some photos to Pixelfed, for example, and I use Ice Cubes every now and then).
@flschr@main@MonaApp With this new Mona feature I can just write my alt-text in Photos and be sure it is added here without having to copy and paste.
Edit: also, if Mona can do this then hopefully other apps will also adopt the feature making it a write once, use everywhere benefit.
