Infographic. At the center is the largest tile with text reading, “Endlessly Effective Image Description Metadata.” Black lines lead to smaller tiles, icons, and text surrounding this central tile. Three smaller tiles read “Processability” at the top left, “Accessibility” to the lower left, and “Discoverability” at the top right. A spur branching off the Accessibility line leads to text reading, “Assistive technologies and voice assistants.” Two branches off the Discoverability line read, “e-Commerce product search and discovery” and “SEO and rich text indexing.” Three icons and text extend directly from the central tile. Two are between Processability and Discoverability. The first of those leads to an icon of twinkling stars and text that reads, “Visual access for AI and algorithms.” The second branch arrives at an icon of a heart inside a speech bubble with the text, “Customer satisfaction.” Finally, a third branch off the central tile between Accessibility and Discoverability reads “Expanded audience” next to an icon of a three-quarters full pie chart.
