Embracing Neurodiversity: The Gift of Different Thinking.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Julia Mossbridge, PhD, to explore gender and neurodiversity within the UAP field and beyond.

An image that reads, "Stop trying to be liked by everybody. You don't even like everybody."

I really gotta keep this in mind... 🧠🧠🧠

At Knowbotics AI, we're applying these same principles to create educational experiences that work with, not against, students' natural thinking patterns

Because sometimes the best learning doesn't look like learning at all

- Visual-spatial thinking
- Pattern recognition
- Learning through experimentation
- Immediate feedback
- Self-paced progression

His game? It's now worth billions and is used in schools worldwide.

The secret? It taps into how neurodivergent minds naturally learn:

The $500 Million Minecraft Secret Your School Needs to Know 🎮

Did you know? Minecraft creator Markus Persson has ADHD and Asperger's.

Fascinating fact: Studies show neurodivergent students can learn up to 3x faster when using their preferred learning pathway.

That's exactly what adaptive AI learning does - it identifies and matches each student's natural "connection type," making learning smoother, faster, and more effective.

Traditional education is like forcing everyone to use the same connection type. But what if we could provide each student with their optimal network?

Both can reach the same website, but their paths are drastically different. This is exactly how neurodivergent learning works.

We're not just teaching students - we're nurturing future innovators. At Knowbotics AI, we're using technology to spot and nurture these entrepreneurial traits early.

- Questioning established rules = Disrupting industries
- Hyperactivity = Extraordinary energy for projects
- "Daydreaming" = Visionary thinking

The traits that make some students "challenging" in traditional classrooms often become their greatest strengths in innovation and leadership:

Richard Branson dropped out due to learning difficulties.

See a pattern?

It’s raining. Heavily

Surely ok for a Monday beer @brewdogofficial.bsky.social 👀🍺

A little #BlueSkyEtiquette reminder:

- use ALT text (there’s a prompt in settings)
- block / mute for your own mental health
- don’t go looking for fruitless arguments, there are trolls around
- this is a linear timeline, be in the moment then move on
- default identity check is #proofofcat

It's not about "curing" these sensitivities - it's about harnessing them. At Knowbotics AI, we're helping students transform their "spider senses" into superpowers through adaptive learning technology.

Because sometimes, what looks like overwhelm is actually a sign of an extraordinary mind at work.

But here's the plot twist: Like Spider-Man, this "overload" often comes with extraordinary abilities:
- Heightened pattern recognition
- Intense focus on interests
- Increased sensory awareness
- Deep analytical capabilities

That overwhelming flood of information is exactly what many neurodivergent people experience daily.
