Dr. Craddock mentioned new products being designed, Ms Apaza Machaca's referred to her AI glasses, and Mr. Culhane outline how he does his shopping with AI. It is exciting to hear that. However, again it is worrying about the digital divide and what subsidies and grants we need. I worked in the neurodiverse space, and it is great to see improvements with AAC devices being rolled out in recent years but I am now seeing that when batteries die it can be hard to get them replaced. What sorts of grants and subsidies are needed? Is it individual for each person? How would witnesses suggest we go about that?
