[Michael Lockrey, a11y] Not sure if this is the right forum - but I was blown away by the accuracy of the automatic captioning on a YouTube video today and wanted to share the experience here:
That's great, but also so much of an exception that it doesn't improve my opinion of auto-captions at all.

I also think the ~74% accuracy rate you cite for another video seems a bit high from my day-to-day (anecdotal) experience.

[Michael Lockrey, a11y] Yes I agree @aardrian - I'm going to keep doing more testing and see whether the bulk of videos with multiple speakers, background music and sound effects etc means most are in the 60-80% range
[Alice Boxhall, a11y]@stevefaulkner On http://crbug.com|crbug.com I believe - tag with UI-Accessibility and it should end up in front of the right people

[Katy Moe, a11y] If I’m building a website made up of various UI components (molecules, organisms, etc - atomic design style), some of which contain headings, how do I make sure that the overall heading structure makes sense on each page without knowing when I design my components exactly which pages they’ll be on?

[Katy Moe, a11y] For example, say I have a footer/site map component that contains some <h3>s and I want to include it on every page - what do I do if some of the pages don’t have <h2>s?

@kmoe that's difficult, but you can mitigate the issue by having a consistent landmark structure across all pages (consistent as always having a header/main/footer containers for content. And while skipping a heading level is not ideal it's not the end of the world. Having a reasonably sane heading structure is better than having no headings. As always it would be useful to see the actual code to be able to provide a more informed opinion 😉

Does anyone know whether it's possible to get either Reveal.js or Shower.js to work with a Windows screen reader?
