Big questions like, “Does ADHD make you more likely to have postpartum depression?” Little nitpicks (TikTok was wrong about something?!), and personal conversations with everyone from old bosses and hilarious comedians, to leading researchers. Because on this show, hyperfocus isn’t the distraction — it’s the assignment.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-10T12:23:44.916692+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hyperfocus-with-rae-jacobson-7037869"},"episode":{"title":"What could the AI boom mean for neurodivergent people?","slug":"what-could-the-ai-boom-mean-for-neurodivergent-people","published_at":"2025-09-25T04:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hyperfocus-with-rae-jacobson-7037869/what-could-the-ai-boom-mean-for-neurodivergent-people","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/hyperfocus-with-rae-jacobson-7037869","url":"https://www.understood.org/en/podcasts/hyperfocus/ai-disablity","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/1245/afp-935247-injected.calisto.simplecastaudio.com/413aead8-30e8-4194-b1de-a79e272c9a2b/episodes/b093830c-b6f4-4c9a-8257-45a23a85557b/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=413aead8-30e8-4194-b1de-a79e272c9a2b&awEpisodeId=b093830c-b6f4-4c9a-8257-45a23a85557b&feed=rovQkSeI","summary":"Artificial intelligence has cemented itself as the latest world-altering technology. It follows the same lineage as electricity, the television, the internet — the list goes on. Depending on who you talk to, AI is the greatest thing ever or the thing that will destroy the world, with lots of room in the middle for discussion and experimentation. But within the bigger AI fascination, there’s a smaller yet critical conversation about how this technology might help or harm people who learn and think differently. That’s why we brought in Dr. Amy Gaeta for this week’s “Hyperfocus.” She’s an AI ethicist and researcher who also has autism, giving her a unique insight that she shares on our latest episode.","meta_description":"Artificial intelligence has cemented itself as the latest world-altering technology.
