🚨 It’s official – Voices of Neurodiversity: An Inclusive Encyclopaedia is OUT TODAY! 🧠📘💛 After years of research, writing, and collaboration, it’s finally here. Here’s what it’s all about 👇🧵

@chrispaps @uniofbedsnews hopes his inclusive encyclopaedia will spark discussion and action, and Hazel Lim looks at addressing the stigma around autism in the Chinese community. @ChineseautismUK https://t.co/pA9azEviOX

My resent books. Perfect Christmas presents 🙂 please share.

Great to be part of relaunching the Autism Westminster Commission with @BarrySheerman @EDalmayne and others

Delighted to launch our new @lagcharity scheme 'Autistic Workplace Support Sessions'. Looking forward to supporting the employment needs of our fantastic autistic community who are horribly discriminated against in employment, both when seeking posts and when in post

Fantastic magazine and community 👇

Autism isn’t “caused” by paracetamol. Or vaccines. Or diets. It’s not something to prevent or cure. It’s a natural neurotype. An identity. Wild and tragic that it's 2025 and we're STILL having this debate

Please share 🙏 @lagcharity @AIMautistic @milton_damian @CarrieGrant1 @Autism_Knight @gurchrandhawa @DrAmyPearson @jo3grace @RoaringNurse @KieranRose7 @EDalmayne @SarahMarieOB

This feels especially relevant right now with the release of GPT-5 and the sudden disappearance of GPT-4o’s more ‘companion-like’ personality. Autistic people (and others) are deeply affected when AI companionship shifts overnight. This raises urgent ethical questions

My new article is out! 📢 'The Use of AI Chatbots for Autistic People: A Double-Edged Sword of Digital Support and Companionship' AI ‘friends’ can offer acceptance & reduce loneliness for autistic people but they can also cause harm without safeguards

📘 To get your copy: 🔗 Routledge (20% off with code 25AFLY3): https://t.co/MmWPgrymc0 🔗 Amazon: https://t.co/Uj4oYqyHOu In paperback, eBook, & hardback. Please share💛 @routledgebooks @milton_damian @CarrieGrant1 @DrAmyPearson @jo3grace @AIMautistic @KieranRose7 @cityalan
