AI Therapist Chatbot Project

Inspiration

Many people don't have access to mental health help, whether due to a lack of resources or simply not being aware of the available support. We wanted to create an AI-powered chatbot to help bridge this gap by providing easily accessible mental health assistance.

How We Built It

We built a website using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. To create the AI chatbot, we used a tool called Chatbase, which allowed us to train our chatbot by scraping through 10 websites and processing over 300,000 words of mental health-related content.

Challenges We Faced

One of the biggest challenges was learning how to train an AI and implement it into our website. Since none of us had worked with AI before, we had to familiarize ourselves with how AI scraping works and how to fine-tune the chatbot's responses for better accuracy and helpfulness.

What We Learned

Through this project, we gained valuable experience in website development and a deeper understanding of how AI models are trained and deployed. It was an insightful journey that gave us a new appreciation for the complexity of AI-powered applications.
