This week, we hosted Chris Quickfall and discussed AI's positive impact on neuro-inclusion in the workplace.

Chris discovered he was neuro-divergent while at university, and the strategies he was given changed his life. He has since set up several businesses to help improve the quality of assessments and democratise the testing process. He is the CEO of Cognassist, which helps businesses embrace neurodiversity and all its benefits.

Cognassist has been using machine learning for years and has recently started using artificial intelligence. Listen to the pod to find out how these two technologies combine to reduce the cost and improve the speed and accuracy of cognitive assessments.
