Before investing your time, money, or resources into Artificial Intelligence for British Sign Language (BSL), consult Deaf-led organisations and Deaf consultants.
AI cannot replace British Sign Language. Misguided assumptions can lead to wasted effort and harm to the Deaf community.
Engage with Deaf experts first. Build solutions that respect and empower.
Deaf professionals deserve fair pay, not volunteering or voucher schemes. Pay them equally as hearing peers.
Why Fair Pay Matters
Historically, Deaf individuals have often been offered voucher schemes, sometimes worth ten times more than what hearing peers receive, for repetitive tasks such as filling out forms or providing data.This approach wastes their time and undervalues their expertise.
Fair payment is essential for equality, respect, and meaningful collaboration.
