Anybody else or just me?

Hi to eveyone that stops by!

i was diagnosed autistic back in june, and while little bits began to reveal or show themselfs as actual autisim in motion i still feel like i have a tremendous amount to learn.

i have been using ai to pose questions too as a means of infomation gathering.

i was encouraged to be mindful of where the information comes from, and here was a recommended site.

i have been reading up a little on the vulnerabilities of being austitic and while i dont want to say or use my autisim as an excuse

its like ive been at a pretty fair disadvantge due to being autistic and have never known it.

i dont blame my autisim like its the cause, more like i understand why i made such a train wreck of things lol

does this make sense? lol

does anyone get what i mean ? lol

    I would advise caution when using AI in this manner as it is quote prone to confirmational bias, ie if it thinks you are looking for a particular answer then it will give you that answer, sometimes without any facts to back it up (ie it fabricates it).

    The trick here is to ask it to cite its sources so you can review them and make sure 1) they say what the AI tell you and 2) that they look like a reputable source.

    I can recommend a simple to follow book to start, something like:

    Autism For Dummies (2025) - ISBN 9781394301003 (paberback); ISBN 9781394301027 (ebook)

    Then I would consider the areas I wanted  to read more about and dig deeper - ask here for other recommendations as there are a load of books out there on different aspects of autism.

    There is a lot of personal experience shared on these discussion threads which you can search using the box at the top of the screen but if you have a specific question then it is most effective just to ask and you should get a range of replies within a day or two.

    Knowledge = power so make yourself powerful.

    Yes some of these questions should be kept open and based on self discovery and personal experience
