Actually, I wonder if there's potential in something like this for accessibility purposes. If you have one of the many variations of color-blindness, for instance, could such a restyling be helpful? Could other neurological disabilities be similarly aided by dynamically restyling visuals?

There are many low-tech solutions that can be applied instead of shoehorning in neural networks for this purpose.
Yes, but they also require active participation from the developer and many developers are unwilling or unable to spend the time to implement them, especially when there's a rather large range of disabilities to account for.

It's possible that tech like this could offer a user-definable solution to these issues.
