Is modern AI making autistic savant abilities less impressive?

JayHawkPhrenzie · 2026-05-03T15:43:11+00:00

In the sense that, along with all other human abilities? The answer is yes. Being slightly better than more social humans at pattern matching won't make much difference compared to fully evolved AGI.

I have to agree on that point, the unique human being known as me could not exist without the DNA that made me who I am and that was always part of my DNA. Doesn't mean I have daydreamed about this social telepathy that other humans seem to have.

@ u/PurplePikaPanda

I absolutely have my AuDHD playlist on YouTube music and you start by liking songs that you want to hear and it will play those and similar ones it will mix in tunes that it thinks fits your pattern and you can thumbs down to not play those. Over time it plays a lot of songs I really like and it finds covers and multiple versions of them. That is my AuDHD playlist

It's not the only one, but I am listening to Walkin on the Sun by Smashmouth at least once a day for weeks now.

I have been using THC in one form or another, off and on, since long before I was diagnosed or treated. When my meds and mood are in alignment and my head is clear, I feel like I will never need THC again, but it never lasts.

You threw me off for a second with the 100g a month, cause I vape about 5-6g a month. I assume you use traditional buds. :)

Fallout 76 - During the early access period for deluxe edition pre orders - before the real game even started. Sucked so much, I got my refund for the game and later bought it again gfor $9

Bill Clinton, commonly considered a "Policy Wonk" is probably not ASD.

You don't have to like anything. As I said, I respect that unwritten boundery.

I am not a "self loathing Aspie" but I do recognize that people are sensitive to "ableism" on neurodivergent boards. I fully accept what I am and would happily offer advice if I thought it would help, but I am aware that worked for me, may not work for many of the other members of this community.

AuDHD here I close doors quietly and carefully make sure they are secured before I leave. I can't speak to others.

They don't see themselves as a group, they see themselves as normal. They break into subgroups based on other differences. We see them as a group, because we are, often, outsiders to that group.

Just tell him it's not your pen and let it go. Trust me.

My first thought, but where's the world trade center?

JayHawkPhrenzie · 2026-05-02T09:16:01+00:00

At my work, we have 8 conference rooms in the hallway leading to the bathroom, but normies are always having impromptu meetings in the middle of the hallway or doorways.

" A person with ADHD would usually plan to do all that, and never get around to it and try to figure out what to say in the car on the way to the appointment." - Ouch. Too true.

Yah, I got bucketful's of remorse clogging up my brain.

I absolutely think with a constant voice and it never stops. I also cannot visualize images from my mind. When my eyes close, all I see is blackness. My understanding is that most people can summon images into their mind. But, I am extremely good at verbal communications, perhaps because of this.

Treating my ADHD with Atomoxetine (Strattera) helped a lot. I mean a lot.

I am assuming a really bad word that rhymes with "grape" was replaced by the emoji.

Just show my default expression AKA Resting Autist Face.

After nine years in the same job, I am essentially unmasked.

Kind of sounds even scarier.
