Inspiration
The motivation for this project is my personal stress about choosing a gift for somebody like friends, senior, or family members. Indeed, the big use of OpenAI ChatGPT has been to get suggestions about gifts or party event ideas. Therefore, our team came up with the AI-powered suggestion app which solves the problem of a little stress and enriches the gift-giving experience.
What it does
This GIFT SUGGESTER application generates a list of suggested ideas for gifts according to user preference. Users can input short information like the gender and age of the person to who users want to give a gift. Then, users will input Budget and Keywords that meet users insights. According to the inputs, GIFT SUGGESTER which connects to GenAI suggests 5 different ideas for gifts. Looking at the ideas, users can seamlessly change the Budget and Keywords so that users immediately get the ideas in the interaction with GenAI. The fun point is the randomness of the suggestion that users do not expect, and the suggestion that accords with users' criteria to the point. Also, the app gives a link to the shopping website and promotes users shopping experience.
How we built it
We built the main framework using Python. For GenAI to interact with the application, we used Face Hugging AI. For the website application UI, we used HTML and CSS files.
Challenges we ran into
Since it was the first time for us to incorporate GenAI into our application, we had trouble in activating the AI interaction on the web application. Also, since Face Hugging AI is a generative text AI in general use, it sometimes generates the undesirable responce even when we use the same prompt. So it was difficult to manage the AI's response in a preferable way.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
First, successfully incorporating GenAI interaction to our web application is a big leap for us. It finally achieved our problem-solving goal and came to useful tools that meet our desirable features.
What we learned
We learned how to incorporate GenAI into our applications and how to debug and do coding that uses GenAI's support. We also learned prototyping using Figma software. In addition, we learned the difficulty of getting a preferable answer from GenAI stably.
What's next for AI powered GIFT SUGGESTER
Next, we want to implement the custom advertisement feature in the list of suggestions to promote the business aspect. We think custom advertisement can be accomplished by GenAI as well. We also think we want to improve the UI to promote accessibility for users.
