If you have limited mobility, AI can help with tasks that are hard to do physically, using voice or text.

Task Automation

• What It Is: AI can write letters, send messages, or manage schedules for you.

• Example: In Nigeria, a man named Chidi with a spinal injury says, “Help me write a letter to my doctor,” and the AI drafts a clear letter he can send.

• Prompts to Try:

  • “Write a letter to [person] about [topic].”

  • “Send a text to my caregiver.”

• Tools: Google Assistant, Microsoft Cortana (basic smartphones).

Smart Home Basics

• What It Is: Use voice commands to control devices like lights or fans, if available.

• Example: In urban Ghana, a woman named Ama with limited arm movement says, “Turn on lights using voice commands,” and her AI-connected bulb lights up.

• Prompts to Try:

  • “Turn off the fan.”

  • “Set the room temperature.”

• Tools: Amazon Alexa (if affordable), Google Home (basic versions).

Transportation Help

• What It Is: AI can find accessible routes or transport options.

• Example: In Kenya, a wheelchair user named Joyce types, “Find accessible routes to Nairobi Hospital,” and the AI suggests a bus with a ramp.

• Prompts to Try:

  • “Find a wheelchair-accessible bus to [place].”

  • “Show me safe routes to [destination].”

• Tools: Google Maps, local transport apps (check with NGOs).
