I've been volunteering for Be My Eyes* for a few years now. It's been very rewarding. I get maybe a half dozen calls each year.

I help people with very mundane and human tasks: cooking, gardening, label identification.

Would you be willing to share what kind of calls you usually get? No personal or sensitive details of course.

Did the volume of calls change meaningfully with the introduction of AI into Be my Eyes?

		I touched on it in my original comment. My last call was a woman who was cooking and thought maybe she had dropped some meat on the stove burner. Another call was someone stocking a refrigerator with soda, and they needed help sorting the brands. Another was a woman who wanted to know if her plant was still alive. My first call was helping a woman wrap a gift, she needed to know which side of the gift book was "up".
