I doubt most (vast majority) have more than a statistically meaningless set of any hypothetical autism markers. A predilection for technology, math or science and social immaturity are commonly identified items techies use to contend they "may" be on the spectrum, but the reality is even mild autism includes so much more abnormality than that.

And yet tech hubs are crawling with people who are on the spectrum, and have autistic children. Of course not everyone on the spectrum works in tech industry and not working in tech is on the spectrum, but correlation can be seen.
