EMI - Emotional and Mental Intelligence

Inspiration

Observing the mental health crisis and the need for a non-judgmental space for people to relax and just talk or seek out help.

What it does

It interacts with the user using a chatbot, responding with support and resources for the user.

How we built it

Using Open AI API, we were able to build an AI chatbot that was developed to fit the needs of this project.

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges we ran into were that the bot would not respond with relevant information and would often respond by talking about something random. We were able to fix this by making the AI respond after analyzing the text so that it would respond helpfully.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of developing a chatbot with the capability of helping people in the real world in a short amount of time.

What we learned

We learned the vast capabilities of AI and how to implement AI into our projects to improve them.

What's next for EMI - Emotional and Mental Intelligence

We hope to incorporate facial emotion detection through cameras to allow the chatbot to respond to the user accordingly.
