This process is designed to tortured the neurodivergent

I've been applying to jobs for less than a month now and I'm extremely frustrated by the process now. Every application wants me to attach a resume and then fill in a bunch of fields with all the same information that my resume already contains. Then when I get to the end I get to have the prisoners dilemma question with the job. Do I admit to having a disability or not? Because in states with at will employment, how am I supposed to trust that they aren't just immediately tossing any applications with a yes right out? Then there's the extra hurdle of will a real person even look at my resume before I get rejected or have they implemented AI to save costs that throws away anyone who actually asks for their fair market value now?
