- The author's non-verbal son uses a custom communication device for various interactions, including tattling on his brother, expressing desires, and negotiating for food.
- The device helps the son communicate emotions like nervousness and embarrassment, and he has expanded his food preferences, trying new items like waffles and pineapple.
- The author describes the development as a miracle, viewing miracles as a coalescence of purpose rather than a violation of nature, and emphasizes the positive impact of AI in creating the app.
- The author seeks beta testers for the communication device, targeting parents of non-verbal children, with criteria including interest in animated shows and willingness to provide feedback and data.
- Limitations include no support for hearing impairments or non-English languages yet, and a focus on children struggling with abstraction, with plans to expand to adults later.
