The implication being that autistic people have none? Wow.

No, the implication is that they have trouble expressing it. Which is accurate.

You can read that from the article text, but a) the text doesn’t appear to actually suggest autistic people do have empathy, which is a problem since b) the title absolutely implies they don’t.
At best, this is a terrible headline. But if I’m being honest, I don’t have much respect for an article that seems to be all too eager to tout the erstwhile benefits of an LLM, let alone one that is in all likelihood teaching people how to act more like an LLM. So I’m not inclined to take a charitable interpretation.

Is that something that you need explained?

Did you stop reading the rest of the post when you saw that? Because it really looks like you did.
