Dr. Hoby Wedler welcomes returning guest Doug Goist to the podcast this week. Doug is a program manager for workforce development at NSITE where he helps people who are blind and visually impaired find employment by providing training opportunities. Blindness doesn’t get adequate coverage in most diversity training, so NSITE created a program called “Blindness, Equity, Inclusion,” where Doug helps companies in the commercial sector audit themselves and discover how they can support people with blindness and vision impairments in the workplace.
Doug also has a deep passion for artificial intelligence (AI) and technology. After losing his sight, technology became his key to navigating a challenging world. Tune in this week as he discusses the many ways in which AI is revolutionizing the world for people who are blind or visually impaired. Technology is now available to help individuals create and decipher visual content, navigate their surroundings, “see” inside things, and so much more, opening up numerous opportunities in the workplace and every aspect of life.
