NeuroConvergences is a French, non-profit organization led by and for neurodivergent people. [...]
We have PDA, we are “too much,” and we are, everywhere.

"[We] asked a generative AI to lower the reading level [of a text about] how autistic people deserve rights. [...]The AI added ideas & sentences about how some autistic people have very rare & amazing talents. This is not something that ASAN would say." Thank you @autselfadvocacy

"Plain language works because people with disabilities are part of writing it & use their lived experience to make sure the writing is actually accessible. Generative AI does not have this experience. AI can never have the experience of being disabled & needing plain language."

"AI gets data from many different places. But most AI programs are made by people who have a lot of power and privilege. Then those AI programs get data from those people in power. That means certain groups get left out and end up discriminated against." https://t.co/zDfL3HRQ7A

Great to connect with @UCL's @GDIHub to discuss barriers for Organizations of Persons with Disabilities (OPDs), from #accessibility in higher ed to "access intimacy." We are also thrilled to have secured a spot on the upcoming OPD Global Map! More here: https://t.co/n1z6NIopHI

We can agree to disagree but not about human rights.

We wish to be "remarked" until we are (truly) seen, accepted and included, systemically so. And to be expected, respected, and made unremarkable thereafter; nothing else.

A misconception is that neurodiversity is about exceptionalism and the extraordinary. In truth, it is about putting an end to the invisibilisation, systemic exclusion of something that is in fact quite mundane. Normalisation and participation is what we strive for, not exception.
