I’ve Decided to leave the forum.

I’ve been giving this much thought over the last few days, I’ve been here for nearly 4 years and have learned much about autism. Not to sound too soppy, it’s been and still is a mind blowing autistic journey. I’ve seen lots of people come and go and have enjoyed chatting to different people. Lots has changed since I first joined.

I have found it very disturbing to see a fellow autistic human subjected to trial and verdict by AI, as autistic people we often have strong views on subjects, they are just that, views or opinions, why should someone’s opinions need to be constantly fact checked by a computer? It seems NAS we’re complicit in this act by condoning it, this is a public forum that the whole world can access. It looks as if the act was a long time in its planning. Are we getting to a world where a court is to dispense with a jury of human adults and simply feed the evidence into a computer? The AI has decided either guilt or innocence and passed sentence. It’s not a word I would wish to be part of. To be honest I’m shocked over the whole situation. AI can also not comprehend human compassion.

I don’t want to engage any further, I more just wanted to say goodbye, and to the good times.

  • The way that it is written and the comments that follow it very much comes across as a personal attack. The original issue was a disagreement and I really don't care who was right or wrong in it. But it makes me very uncomfortable to think that if I have a difference of opinion with someone on here then an entire post may be made about me in a negative light. It also massively encourages side taking which is also against the rules. I know my comments here may come across as side taking but as I say I have zero interest as to who is right or wrong in the original disagreement. I just disagree with the mods allowing the follow up thread.
