Speed of progress at the cost of technological exclusion — no-code, UI libraries, AI tools and web accessibility

In my presentation, I will discuss how the rapid advancement of web technologies leads to compromises in creating accessible user experiences. I will talk about no-code tools and the way they may impact inclusive design. I will also mention UI libraries and issues that they cause when used without prior consideration. I will make an argument for AI excluding many users from the technological race due to a steep learning curve. Lastly, I will offer some ideas on addressing these issues.
