I’m autistic and I think I’m faster at problem-solving because I use procedures I’ve stored in long-term memory, rather than fluid intelligence. I mimic fluid intelligence with extremely efficient sets of building blocks.
Kind of like a weak processor but a vast, well-indexed database of efficient solutions ready-made.
What a fitting username 🙂
