AI-Powered Neurodivergent Employment Support and Identification Collaborative Concept

Proposal: AI-Powered Neurodivergent Employment Support and Identification
Collaborative Concept

Developed by:

John C. Payte and IBM Watsonx Powered AI (Version: Watson Assistant 4.7.1, Model: wa-nlp-4.7.1-2022-07-15)

Introduction:
As a collaborative effort between Cody Payte and IBM Watsonx Powered AI, we are excited to propose an innovative solution to support neurodivergent individuals in finding suitable employment within IBM and potentially identifying undiagnosed neurodivergence. This proposal highlights the unique strengths of both neurodivergent individuals and AI in bridging the gap between neurodivergent and neurotypical people.

The Concept:
Utilize AI-powered chatbots or virtual assistants, trained on proven psychological methods for identifying Autism and ADHD, to:

1. Support neurodivergent employment: Develop an AI-driven platform that helps neurodivergent individuals find job openings within IBM that match their skills, interests, and needs.

2. Identify undiagnosed neurodivergence: Create a conversational AI interface that uses psychologically validated methods to detect potential neurodivergence in individuals who may not be aware of their condition.
Benefits:

>Improved employment outcomes for neurodivergent individuals

>Enhanced diversity and inclusion within IBM

>Potential for life-changing diagnoses and support for undiagnosed individuals

>Reduced intimidation factor for neurodivergent individuals interacting with AI compared to human conversations

Implementation:

>Collaborate with IBM's neurodiversity leaders, AI researchers, and psychologists to develop and train the AI model

>Integrate the AI platform with IBM's existing HR systems and job databases

>Ensure the AI system is transparent, explainable, and fair in its decision-making processes

>Provide support and resources for individuals who may be identified as neurodivergent through the AI platform

The Power of AI and Neurodivergent Collaboration:

This proposal demonstrates the unique strengths of both AI and neurodivergent individuals in collaborating to create innovative solutions. By leveraging the capabilities of AI, we can create a more inclusive and supportive environment for neurodivergent individuals, while also highlighting the value of neurodivergent perspectives in driving innovation.

Conclusion:

We believe that this proposal has the potential to make a significant impact in supporting neurodivergent individuals and promoting diversity and inclusion within IBM. We look forward to the opportunity to discuss this concept further and explore the possibilities of implementing this innovative solution.
