Do-It-Yourself AAC: Co-Designing User-Programmable AI Communication Tools with People with Aphasia
Lee and Valencia explore how people with aphasia (PWA) can become designers of their own AI-powered augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) tools rather than users of rigid, pre-built systems. The authors note that aphasia, a language disord…
