With community at the foundation of Aira, we are always looking to further engage our users to enhance our products and services. With Aira AI Trusted Tester, you can play a central role in that effort. Aira AI Trusted Tester is a new program where Aira will give access to the Aira AI with human supervision and share select call recordings with a third-party AI partner to advance AI for the blind and low vision community.
1. Purpose
Aira AI Trusted Testers is a new initiative at Aira to help train and develop an advanced AI model with a third party AI company. While there is no guaranteed outcome for this technology, we hope to continue to provide innovative solutions for access for the community. In order to develop this solution, the Aira AI Trusted Testers program will be sharing Explorer Aira AI session recordings and other user information with our AI partner, allowing for the training of the AI solution on real-world experiences of visual interpreting.
2. Participation is Optional
The decision to participate in the Aira AI Trusted Tester program is optional, with the flexibility to opt-out at any time. However, note that even if you choose to opt-out, information previously provided will likely be deployed within the solution. Additionally, you will have control over what interaction data you choose to share. For example, following a session, you will have a certain amount of time to choose not to share that session with Aira AI Trusted Tester. Lastly, in exchange for your participation, Aira will be providing Aira AI with human visual interpreter supervision for sessions. However, it should be noted that these tasks may change over time and that the availability of free minutes is subject to staffing levels and call volumes.
3. Limitations
Although we would like all of members to participate, there are certain limitations on the program, including:
- At this time of training the AI model, Aira AI Trusted Tester is only available at this time for usage within the United States. This is based on your geolocation associated with the application. If location services are disabled, you will not be able to participate in the program.
- The Aira AI Trusted Tester program is not intended for use cases involving sensitive information, such as financial information. As such, to the extent users leverage free minutes for prohibited purposes, we can remove you from the program at any time.
- Aira AI Trusted Tester is not intended for outdoor navigation or tasks requiring remote access to your computer with a tool such as Teamviewer.
- Aira terms of service apply to sessions involving Aira AI under the trusted tester program including restrictions on content.
4. Privacy
As always, Aira strongly values our users’ privacy. We will continue to uphold the standards outlined in our privacy policy and terms of use in connection with the Aira AI Trusted Tester program. Moreover, we have protections in place with the third-party providers to which the information will be shared, ensuring that your information is safe. Any information you choose to share as a part of the program will only be used for the development of AI. And, as always, we will not collect or share your information unless you consent for us to do so and you can opt-out at any time.
