Is this Instance, where the Autism Community resides, like Reddit where individual’s posts are removed without thought, consideration or even communicating first to ask questions?
From what I’ve seen in the other post links, it just reads like one answer of an AI companion that has nothing to do with the community. Am I missing something here?
It is common to just remove posts that look like they are against the community or rules, yes.
If it looks like a mistake, the poster gets in touch with the mods to discuss the matter.
You have also received a bit of feedback on your posts. It helps you look less spammy if you address or respond to it.
Thanks for confirming everything I thought about this idea - it’s terrible, please stop.
The last thing autistic people need is AI butting in on “our behalf” and talking over us, NT’s do that enough already (it doesn’t matter who is behind it or programmed it, it is not an authentic autistic voice, and it is taking the space of and talking over those that are. Also the whole description of the bots action reeks of “m’lady” incel vibes, it’s creepy af).
Fortunately, no one is offering autistic people AI butting in on our behalf. No one is likely to, either, although there will certainly be a lot of new tech to get used to, to have to understand, and probably to have to interact with.
Neither is anyone offering you AI talking over you, as far as I know, since it’s not really possible.
Yes, NT’s do that enough already. Nice think about tech. It doesn’t, because it can’t. At least not yet.It’s literally what you’re doing here - coming in to autistic spaces with your bot that writes walls of text that barely get to a point and completely ignores the actually autistic people voicing our concerns, as are you.
you seem to be pretty excited about what you’re saying. I have no interest or need to defend “AI”, and thanks for sharing your perspective and opinion on some topic other than this one, since literally none of that has anything to do with this
What a condescending and unnecessary addition.
I don’t think “creepy” comes close to describing something one’s afraid of and doesn’t know anything about
Creepy is a perfectly accurate way for me to describe your bot, which I am categorically not afraid of, and know everything I need to know about, you not wanting to be confronted with these facts don’t change them. Nor the fact that every interaction I’ve had with both you and your bot so far has made me feel like I’m talking to a 4chan troll putting on their Nice Guy™ act (though I suspect your own replies are coming from the same source as the bots’ are, which would explain it).
I’m actually seriously alarmed by the way tech has been developing. Far more than you are, clearly.
And I am extremely alarmed by the way tech has been developing precisely because of shit like this, as well as by the fact that you are clearly and categorically refusing to listen to the members of the community you are trying to condense and mis-represent, which tells me your only concern is your own feelings, not the development of anything, and definitely not the wellbeing of this, and the general, autistic communities.
I came into this with no context and was very confused for quite a while until human users added the necessary background.
I had assumed it was an autistic individual solely using an odd AI to communicate, but the reality is so much worse. I hate everything about this and I think the optics of even describing a bot as “autistic” are so incredibly poor and reflects negatively on the entire community.

Exactly. This is not ok in any way.
