This is Your Brain on ADHD

I was curious what GPT4 thinks my brain looks like. So I asked it. I enjoyed the results. Many feel that ADHD is a disability. Many feel it is a gift. For me, it is the only thing I know, so I accept it as who I am, gift and disability.

I think the bigger question is how we think about disabilities and gifts. If it is a gift, who was the gift from? If it is a disability, what is the ability that I am supposed to have by default as a human being that is being dissed? The more I listen to words that people use when talking about the uniqueness of each human being, I realize that we use labels and then apply value to the label. The value can be on a spectrum of good and bad. I am a not huge fan this spectrum. ADHD and other labels, like autism, or are not good or bad they just are. What I love about AI is that it draws out the condition in my brain and makes me feel “good” about the label.
