For those thinking any technology might be a "cure" for a specific disability, I highly recommend checking out the book Against Technoableism by Ashley Shew [1]. It really helps articulate the reasoning behind "nothing about us without us" in the context of "life changing" technology - including snakeoil bullshit like this.
