Interoception Deficits and AI Body Cue Prompting

Interoception—the ability to sense what's happening inside your body—doesn't work the same way for everyone; some people miss hunger, fatigue, or emotional shifts until they're urgent. AI body-cue prompting asks you targeted questions about physical sensations at strategic moments, bridging the gap between what your body is doing and what your conscious mind registers.

Why It Matters

Interoception deficits refer to reduced awareness of internal body signals such as hunger, fatigue, pain, or emotional arousal, a common feature of autism and ADHD that undermines self-regulation and basic needs management.

AI can be configured to deliver scheduled, context-sensitive body check-in prompts that externalize the interoceptive monitoring process, helping neurodivergent users notice and respond to physical and emotional states they would otherwise miss.
