summaryBridging the gap between advances in artificial intelligence and assistive technologies, I will discuss why and how we can co-design pictorial visual communication applications with people with intellectual disability or autism and community members. There is little research that explores the opportunities that multi-modal conversational systems present for people who are not most comfortable communicating linguistically, such as people with intellectual disability. Yet, access to online materials offers unlimited resources to support communication and connection with others. I will present my team’s research on how computers can facilitate rich pictorial communication environments, thereby supporting self-expression and inclusion.
