Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin When I sat down with Microsoft’s Jenny Lay-Flurrie earlier this month , a hot topic of our conversation was the potential of AI-enhanced chatbots as an assistive technology. She shared a personal anecdote of her teenage daughter, who has autism and ADHD, using the new ChatGPT-powered Bing search engine to help her in recently writing an essay on why her school should offer sign language classes. These chatbots, Flurrie said, have the ability to alleviate points of friction associated with motor and cognitive load—especially for a neurodivergent person, where classic methods of research could prove unwieldy and overwhelming. “[AI chatbots] collate so much information for you very, very quickly.

The government’s new emergency alerts service is designed to warn citizens if their life is at risk. The alert will sound during events such as severe flooding, fire or terrorist attack.
