People with autism are typically diagnosed by clinical observation and assessment. To deconstruct the clinical decision process, which is often subjective and difficult to describe, researchers used a large language model (LLM) to synthesize the behaviors and observations that are most indicative of an autism diagnosis.

These findings have potential to improve diagnostic guidelines for autism by decreasing the focus on social factors — which the established guidelines in the DSM-5 focus on but the model did not classify among the most relevant in diagnosing autism.
