Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify whether researched and commonly used face-to-face interventions can be effectively implemented through artificial intelligence (AI) using an application on the phone or computer. The investigators plan to recruit verbal individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder who demonstrate challenges with socialization. Modules focusing on various difficulties experienced by autistic individuals will provide practice and feedback using voice recognition and feedback. If effective, this intervention can be scaled up to provide cost-effective accessible assistance to individuals, particularly those who do not have access to care or prefer to secure services in the comfort of their own homes.

AI Modules for Improving Social Conversation

The application if the modules will be delivered using software. These modules have been developed to provide feedback on specific areas following voice or text input (user preference will be recorded in case this effects the results). The investigators currently have developed AI modules for common social communication challenges exhibited by individuals with ASD. Examples include: Empathy (general and in the work setting), Asking Relevant Questions, Listen and Respond, Talking the right amount, giving the right amount of personal information, Tactful Responses, Giving compliments, and Staying on topic during Conversation. These are all areas that can be challenging for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. AI modules consist of thousands of total training examples. Participants may access the modules on their phones or computers.
