Hi everyone, For the upcoming Accessibility Lunch, Joon will present his  
CHI 2024 practice talk : Title "It’s the only thing I can trust”:  
Envisioning LLM Use by Autistic Workers for Communication Assistance  
Abstract: Autistic adults often experience stigma and discrimination at  
work, leading them to seek social communication support from coworkers,  
friends, and family despite emotional risks. Large language models (LLMs)  
are increasingly considered an alternative. In this work, we investigate  
the phenomenon of LLM use by autistic adults at work and explore  
opportunities and risks of LLMs as a source of social communication advice.  
We asked 11 autistic participants to present questions about their own  
workplace-related social difficulties to (1) a GPT-4-based chatbot and (2)  
a disguised human confederate. Our evaluation shows that participants  
strongly preferred LLM over confederate interactions. However, a coach  
specializing in supporting autistic job-seekers raised concerns that the  
LLM was dispensing questionable advice. We highlight how this divergence in  
participant and practitioner attitudes reflects existing schisms in HCI on  
the relative privileging of end-user wants versus normative good and  
propose design considerations for LLMs to center autistic experiences. Join  
us at noon in NSH 4201. Looking forward to this interesting talk! Thanks  
and regards, Peya
