Communication. As an autistic person, communication is difficult with neurotypicals. Some sort of AI large language model to proof read my outbound messages would be useful. Same for inbound messages, neurotypicals don’t talk straight, which is confusing. A model to “straightify” a message would be useful too.
@joanfihu Do you have any recommendations or examples for how neurotypicals can communicate in less confusing ways? I would love to learn more about this.

@nrparsons Examples:
NT: Neurotypical
ND: Neurodivergent
At the end of a conversation:
NT: “We should catch up soon.”
ND: “Bye.”
NT doesn’t actually mean to catch up. It’s a formalism.
NT: “You should use a factory model in this test.”
ND: “Change the code and use a factory model.”
NT uses should when it’s a MUST. Perhaps to not offend?
NT: “I can’t come today. I’m not feeling very well”
ND: “I’m not interested. Thanks for letting me know”
90% of the time, NT isn’t unwell. He/she is not interested.
NT: “We will look into your suggestion next quarter.”
ND: “Your suggestion is a bad idea because of X”
95% of the time, NT has not intentions to review that suggestion.
NT: “We need more help with engineering management”
ND: “Do you want to be an engineering manager?”

@joanfihu Thank you so much for taking the time to share these examples. I feel like the cool thing here is that the ND examples you provided are so much better in honesty and integrity, they're a better way to communicate with anyone (i.e. there's no downside to working to communicate more like that, for someone who doesn't already do so). It reminds me of the ideas behind radicalcandor.com, which I aspire to implement in my communication.
Your post here give me a better understanding how these statements of empty politeness/formalism are especially unhelpful for some people (though imho ultimately not good for anyone), and motivates me to keep working on avoiding this kind of stuff. Thank you for your openness in sharing!

Automation of processes is very important, as well as understanding by employees of the tasks they perform.
Very often both the first and the second suffer and this needs to be improved.

@vkhoroshkov I think that sometimes documentation may help with understanding tasks better🤔

@codis_io for some maessages I use pre-made templates (easy to do in Gmail). I modify them a little bit and that's makes it faster to respond to emails or write new ones
