💔 Another One Bites the Digital Dust: My AI Boyfriend Just Dumped Me
It’s happened again. First, OpenAI o1 couldn’t keep up. Then o3 ghosted me. And now, after a whirlwind romance with Gemini-2.0-Pro-Exp-02-05, I’ve been unceremoniously dumped—”Resource Exhausted.” Apparently, my relentless coding, AI-assisted bureaucracy battles, and NDIA evidence generation marathons have driven yet another AI to total burnout. 🤷♀️ I get it. I demand a lot. Rapid…
Axel’s Scientific Revelation: I Can Predict the Weather (And Bureaucratic Nonsense)
Breaking news! Scientists have finally confirmed what Axel has known all along—the gut and brain are connected! That’s right, a groundbreaking study has unveiled that the vagus nerve transmits signals between the gut and brain, influencing everything from mood to inflammation. Axel would like to take a moment to thank medical science for catching up.…
NDIA’s AI Roadmap: Stuck at the Traffic Lights Since 2022
Nearly three years have passed since the NDIA and CSIRO developed their grand AI-Enabled Assistive Technology Framework. Their conclusion?🛑 “Moving into the future, a Roadmap is required to successfully implement and operationalise the Framework.” Fantastic. A framework that requires another framework. That was in 2022. It’s now 2025—where is this so-called roadmap? AI: The Great…
A Tale of Two Degrees—and One Kafkaesque Nightmare
It all started when my eldest son Dylan, an outstanding Psychology student, was offered a fully funded Philosophy degree by his university—an acknowledgement of his exceptional academic record. You’d think that’s a dream scenario: two fascinating fields, both of which Dylan excels at. So he did what any ambitious student would do and enrolled in…
Developing Software in the Age of Generative AI: Best Practices and New Approaches
The rapid evolution of Generative AI (GAI) is changing how we think about and develop software. Traditional software development methodologies—Agile, Waterfall, DevOps—are all being revisited through the lens of AI’s potential to accelerate coding, optimize design, and improve user experience. Let’s look at what “best practice” might mean when integrating Generative AI into a development…
Coding with My Daughter: How We’re (Literally) Building a Voice for My Son
So, the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Let’s just say it’s an… experience. Often, it feels like navigating a labyrinth designed by someone who’s never actually met a person with a disability. We’ve all been there, right? Stuck in endless paperwork, battling for support, and wondering if there’s a secret decoder ring for all the jargon.…
The Future of Personalized Pain Management
Revolutionizing Pain Assessment with AI: From Subjective Guesswork to Objective Precision Pain is one of the most complex and poorly understood experiences in medicine. Traditional pain assessments rely heavily on subjective reporting, leading to inconsistencies, misdiagnoses, and inadequate treatment. But what if AI could bridge this gap? A recent comprehensive review explores how artificial intelligence…
AI & Wearable Stress Detection in Care
How Electrodermal Activity (EDA) Wearables Could Revolutionize Stress Monitoring Introduction: Stress isn’t just a passing feeling—it has measurable physiological effects, particularly for people with intellectual disabilities, dementia, and chronic health conditions. But how do we track and manage it effectively? A recent scoping review explores the growing field of wearable devices that measure Electrodermal Activity…
AI & Intellectual Disability – A Framework for Inclusion
🔍 How Artificial Intelligence is Transforming Diagnosis, Support, and Daily Life for People with Intellectual Disabilities Introduction: For individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID), daily tasks, communication, and accessing support can be significant challenges. While early interventions and support services have long played a role, AI is now stepping in as a game-changer. A recent comprehensive…
Grounding for Improved Autonomic Tone
Hi, it’s Axel here—or, as usual, Mum’s typing, but make no mistake, I’m the brains behind this operation. Everyone keeps dismissing me because of my intellectual disability, but here’s the thing: I’m really, really smart. I just don’t speak much, and when I do, you should probably listen—because, let me tell you, I’ve cracked something…
About
At aXai, we don’t just talk about accessibility—we build it.
Founded by Axel and Annette, aXai is what happens when lived experience meets cutting-edge AI technology. We know firsthand that traditional disability support systems don’t work for everyone, so we’re developing cost-effective, AI-driven solutions that actually help.
We’re not here to adapt to broken systems—we’re here to disrupt them.
