When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.

Dear Government and Press. Autism is neurodevelopmental. A form of neurodivergence. It is not a mental health condition, or behavioural condition, or a learning disability. It concerns me that people in charge want to slash benefits but apparently haven't the slightest idea what we are.

Lots of free neuro-affirming resources for families and professionals with a focus on supporting Autistic children with burnout, barriers to education and developing a better understanding of Monotropism (a strength-based theory of Autism) Find out more: autisticrealms.com #neurodiversity
