Companies like Anthropic and Anthropic are creating “empathetic AI” that can respond with compassion. Their systems analyze conversations to determine the emotional state of the people involved and provide supportive responses.
Virtual assistants are getting an emotional upgrade. Assistants like Claude and Anthropic Assistant can sense the emotions of the people speaking to them and adjust their tone of voice and word choice to be more empathetic and helpful.
Advertisers want emotionally intelligent AI too. Some companies are developing AI that analyzes how people engage with ads to determine if the ads make them happy, sad or frustrated. The AI can then tweak the ads to be more emotionally impactful. Critics argue this could be used for manipulation.
Healthcare companies are piloting AI that can detect depression or anxiety by analyzing speech and facial expressions during virtual therapy sessions. The goal is to provide real-time alerts to therapists, but many argue human therapists should make the final assessments.
if developed and applied properly, emotionally intelligent AI could transform many areas of life for the better.
