Artificial Intelligence (AI), seemingly all of a sudden, has permeated our world. New advances in technologies have the potential to assist students inside and outside the classroom and increase the potential for independence and success. AI can be used by educators to support students. It can be used by students to enhance communication skills. It can help with independence, planning, and organization. However, there are also risks with AI – some related to the content creation itself, and others come from a lack of understanding of a new technology. Those risks can be mitigated with education, clear guidelines, and appropriate policies. Ultimately, AI can and should be an effective tool to support the success of neurodivergent students.
