Episode Description from the Publisher

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech show long awaited new demo, as Brian woke up early and decided to do something about his frustration with the state of navigation and usability of ChatGPT on the Mac with VoiceOver.   Welcome to the first ever GPT smack off!   Brian will run you through ChatGPT, ChatGPT Desktop, Google Gemini, Gemini Desktop for Mac, and Claude and compare all of them for ease of use, navigation, and usability with VoiceOver on the Mac.   So grab a beverage, kick back and enjoy.   Brian starts off walking you through the current navigation issues in both the web based and desktop ChatGPT apps. They end up getting a D minus for his usability score.   Next up is Gemini web based and desktop apps. Brian gives web based Gemini an A for its ease of navigation and great heading structure. It blows the doors off the current state of navigation on ChatGPT. Remember this demo was done on the Mac in Safari, you may experience different behavior in chrome on the Mac, and of course on the PC.     Brian ends up giving the Mac Gemini Desktop app a C, so if you are going to use Gemini on the Mac stick to the browser version, it is a much smoother navigation experience.   Brian is using Claude for the first time and like web based Gemini, he gives web based Claude an A as well, so se la vie to ChatGPT and their continuing downward spiral with screen reader usability.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTechShow@gmail.com, join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow
