Apple Intelligence for helping visually impaired

So, I'm hoping for some kind of Terminal program (or even Shortcut) that uses the onboard Apple Intelligence to do a brief, one sentence description of an image file. Basically, if someone doesn't put an alt description on an image, it'll produce it. The onboard model in Tahoe should have vision capabilities, and it already does simple classification in Photos. Any ideas? Imagine rightclicking a file, bringing up Describe, and it just shows a one sentence description.

Houston Live Theatre Scene

Big diverse city like Houston has a strong art scene, but it's terribly balkanized. Many of the great actors on stage trace their roots to Houston, but other than the Hobby Center and the Alley, we don't get much publicity for the other "Off Theatre District" productions. Heck, we could really use a central directory that will collate the schedule, cross advertise, and sell tickets for these productions. Here's a shoutout to some productions happening around the city:

  1. The 4th Wall Theatre Company, currently performing Fat Ham https://www.4thwalltheatreco.com

  2. The Ensemble Theatre, currently performing Who All Over There https://ensemblehouston.com/2025-26-season/who-all-over-there

  3. The Garden Theatre Company just concluded their season with Company but planning a musical theatre performance in June https://www.thegardentheatre.org/musicaltheatre

  4. Stages Theatre, now performing That Drive Thru Monterey https://stageshouston.com/event/that-drive-thru-monterey/

  5. Art Factory Houston is planning The Little Shop of Horrors in June https://www.artfactoryhouston.com/tickets

  6. The Miller Outdoor theatre will have a Shakespeare festival near the end of July through early August. https://www.milleroutdoortheatre.com/performance-list/
