Joining us on this week’s episode of Coffee with Closers is Peter Kant, the CEO of the technology company Enabled Intelligence. More than 50% of its workforce is neurodiverse, and it’s by design. Mr. Kant explains how these professionals, many of whom have been underutilized in prior employment, are particularly adept at performing the highly-skilled and time intensive task of secure data labeling that enables AI technology in support of critical national security missions for the U.S. government. As Israel learned, neurodiverse individuals “almost had superpowers” when it comes to this kind of work, which requires technical savvy, attention to detail and focus, accuracy, pattern recognition proficiency and puzzle solving skills.
