A new study of artificial intelligence and neurodiversity is revealing a coming age of productivity, where AI tools remove executive functioning barriers, boost productivity, and enable entirely new ways of working.

The Google Workspace team partnered with Blink UX to study how GenAI affects productivity for ND users.

Through a two-phase approach—one-on-one qualitative interviews about Gemini in Workspace, Google’s integrated AI assistant, and a heuristic evaluation of ten AI productivity tools—we discovered ways that AI is reducing day-to-day friction and uncovered unmet needs that AI tools and features of the future should include to enable better AI productivity for all.
