[Other megastars] “all had producers and session musicians,” she recalled years later. “They all had the best players.

As someone who is both Autistic and ADHD (what the community calls AuDHD), I’ve experienced firsthand how AI tools can transform daily life and work. But the emerging research reveals something far more significant than individual accommodations. We’re witnessing a convergence of artificial intelligence, neurodiversity-affirming coaching, and evidence-based workplace psychology that’s fundamentally changing how society understands and supports neurodivergent minds. The neurodiversity paradigm—the understanding that neurological differences like autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia are natural variations rather than disorders requiring cure—is finally being supported by cutting-edge technology. The science is clear: AI isn’t just creating better tools for us—it’s revealing that our different ways of thinking aren’t limitations to overcome, but cognitive resources that can revolutionize how we approach complex problems. When combined with proper coaching and psychological support, AI becomes a force multiplier for neurodivergent potential. ...
