(ANSA) – ROME, AUGUST 24 – By 2027, 25% of Fortune 500 companies, the list of the largest US companies by revenue compiled annually by Fortune magazine, will actively recruit people with neurodivergent abilities (characterization that includes autism, attention deficit syndrome or ADHD, dyslexia) to improve company performance. This was reported by Axa Investment Managers, explaining that the forecast is part of a recent study by the research company Gartner in which the main trends that will characterize the world of artificial intelligence for 2024 and beyond are presented. “The development of AI – it is explained – is linked to the use of new talent. Several studies highlight how meticulous attention to detail is one of the most sought-after skills. We are therefore looking at a greater use of workers with neurodivergent abilities in companies”. So what skills will companies most seek among workers? It seems there is a double thread between the way generative AI works and the specific cognitive abilities typical of autistic people. In fact, the meticulous nature of AI work aligns well with the detail-oriented approach commonly seen in autistic professionals. Every small detail can have a significant impact on the overall performance and success of the new technology. Autistic people, in particular, have a tendency to hyperfocus on what interests them most. According to experts at Auticon, a provider of business consulting services on how to create, develop and improve their neurodiversity-inclusive teams and processes, in addition to meticulous attention to detail, companies will look for ‘pattern recognition’ and “problem solving” skills.
