An autistic man has stated that generative AI is a valuable and worthwhile tool which actually helps accessibility, despite it actually being the bane of his fucking life, reports have confirmed.
Paul Shinter, 46, who has incorporated AI into every aspect of his life, from personal to professional, has extolled its virtues online, in public, where everyone can see him, insisting that there is simply no better existing way to do anything and having to think of one is probably ableist..
Shinter explained: “Due to my disability, I need to use ChatGPT. It helps me to come up with thoughts and ideas, and completely outsource my critical thinking to an environment-destroying machine that confuses the words ‘autism’ and ‘autumn’.”
“It’s been an amazing help at work. Last month we were a UK business that sold shoes, and now we sell crypto, and all our text is displayed in Urdu and won’t switch back. We’ve shifted to an eight-day work week since our calendars added a second Wednesday, and if anything that’s just made us more efficient.”
“I even let it decide what I eat. I actually like glue in my carbonara,” he insisted. “The paramedics didn’t want to taste it, but I think they missed out.”
Shinter could not be reached for further comment, as he was busy asking ChatGPT if he was allowed to go for a wee-wee.
