1. A method for generating an image with improved accessibility for color vision diversity, the method comprising:
obtaining, as a first output, a first set of objects included in a first image by inputting the first image to a first AI model;
obtaining, as a second output, a second set of objects included in a second image by inputting the second image to a second AI model, wherein the second image is generated by changing at least one color from the first image;
comparing the first set of objects and the second set of objects to extract an object that is included in the first set of objects but not included in the second set of objects as an unrecognized object based on the color of the unrecognized object; and
replacing a color of the unrecognized object in the first image with a color easily recognized by a person having color vision deficiency.
