I haven’t been there in a while but I remember there was a sub of volunteers that were around for years that went around just describing images, way before AI LLM were really a thing.
I’m assuming this is something new being pushed by reddit itself, but as you said, it’s a good thing regardless.
As long as, even if reddit is using it to train LLM, they are actually still using the descriptions to add accessibility to those images, which I don’t take for granted
