The chatbot can help rehearse communication skills and for some provides a resource to turn to when life is tough.

people, Madi Young, a consultant in Seattle, has learned to perform the social behaviors and body language thatpeople expect. But masking, as it’s called, is hard work and can lead to misunderstandings.

Young also uses the chatbot to help them in their work with neurodivergent entrepreneurs and creatives on brand and business strategy. That has included ChatGPT generating communication strategies that can translate well between autistic and neurotypical people, says Young, who has held a workshop to help other neurodivergent entrepreneurs learn to use the chatbot.
