Comparing local large language models for alt-text generation (dri.es)

I tested 12 LLMs — 10 running locally and 2 cloud-based — to assess their accuracy in generating alt-text for images.

I have 10,000 photos on my website. About 9,000 have no alt-text. I'm not proud of that, and it has bothered me for a long time.

AI isn't perfect, but it can be very useful. People worry about hallucinations and inaccuracy, and I did too. But after generating alt-text for 9,000 images, I saw something different: real, practical value.
