I’ve found that LLMs spit things out that read like bad high school essays. I’m not sure they’re succeeding at sounding allistic at all. Just weirdly repetative in the way a structured high school essay is.

I’ve spent 2 months transcribing an entire poorly written text book into a Google doc. I’m now taking that transcription and having chat gpt rewrite it all for readability. All so I can maybe pass certification exam.

The problem is less with us and more with academia having developed an highly oppressive way of writing things. But from my perspective it’s just sloppy unreadable garbage.

AI has been great I can just give It the promt “make this concise and readable using only common language” and it will take entire chapters down to simple point form lists for me.

I also use goblin tools for writing.

As someone who doesn’t have adhd/autism, I see this as one of those legitimate uses of AI. Because lots of people struggle to make mails/texts to be readable.

Other is summaries the context of large texts/data sheets.

Nah, I’m using it for work, to write proposals and documentation - that’s all. And I always include a “written with AI” disclaimer.

This is literally how I’m getting my directors to stop pestering me about how complex my shit is. Dumbing it down and translating my messages for them. Works wonders.

I’m actually still coping with the fact that I can use AI for work. I hate it. It feels like cheating and I learn little from using it vs. figuring the thing out myself, but this is a smart use.

I don’t have autism, but I still use ai to write out boring corpo stuff sometimes. Like out of office replies and sometimes to add some structure to an argument I’ve typed out hurriedly etc

I sometimes use AI as a proofreader. Asking if the text is well structured and how I can improve it. I prefer to rework it by myself, but it’s nice to be able to get a feedback on a report you are writing before sending it.

But my main use is to ask « common sense » things or fill my lack of basic knowledge. For example, I was struggling for buying some honey at a store because they were 3 kinds of honey and I had no way to know which one to buy (it was a bigger a store than the one I usually go to). I had a short conversation with an AI to determine which one was the best for me. It calmed me down and helped me to make the right choice (this is the kind of situation that makes me very anxious).

It’s also very good to learn or understand foreign language expressions. English is not my native language, so it’s nice to be able to ask an AI about a joke characters are telling in a RPG when the game has not been translated.

I think the next step for me will be to give an AI the ebook I am reading, and ask it questions about things I forgot or did not understand correctly while reading it (I don’t want a summary of the whole book because I don’t want to be spoiled).

I think it’s a very useful tool, and I believe it could make a big difference for autistic people as well in some cases.

I’ve been great at writing since I was a kid, so I hadn’t even considered it since writing is the one place I can express myself properly.

Not necessarily ai, but I use recommendations of message app to make a 2-3 word answer instead of a single word one

I do lists of stuff I want to say, make ai do it, then change it to sound more like me

I don’t.

I dont yet but I will probably use a locally hosted, open source AI to do this at some point. I‘m self employed and need to remove barriers that arent fixed (moral code for example is fixed for me).

I use it to save energy for meaningless texts.

I’ve been loving pi.ai for this, it seem to have far more emotional intelligence than any others I’ve tried
