For something with such a large spectrum, it doesn't make sense to assign broad generalizations. The lack of empathy in particular is almost too close to implying criminality as a common occurrence. Code perhaps?
Some people play the social games more than others and if you're not interested in playing along, you're labelled as the 'other'. Then all of the negative stuff builds from there and it tends to become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Positive generalizations are harmful too, like it being a super power or you're going to be a wealthy inventor.
Autism would be just one factor among many for all of these things.
