Abstract
With companies like SAP hiring neurodivergent people for specialized technical tasks, the inclusion of neurodivergents gained importance. This inclusion in engineering teams enables companies to leverage the different strengths of both neurodivergents and neurotypicals, enhancing innovation capabilities significantly. This paper presents an AI-based approach for designing neurodiverse-friendly user interfaces (UIs) of IT-systems to facilitate the inclusion of neurodivergents and thus empower team diversity. The methodology is based on data from a survey within the neurodivergent community.
