■ Announcement Regarding the Online Symposium

[July 9 Event: “AI Teacher” That Empathizes
with Every Student—What Is the
World’s First Empathetic AI Assistant That Delivers Truly Personalized Learning?]

"Empathetic AI That Resonates with Emotions" is the
world’s first empathetic AI system that collects users’
biometric data—such as heart rate and body movements—to instantly estimate their learning comprehension, concentration, and stress
levels. Based on these emotional states, the
generative AI automatically generates feedback that resonates with the user’s
emotions in the form of text, voice, and character expressions.Ai Seki, a recipient of the IPA’s “Uncharted” Project designation
as a “Genius Programmer/Super Creator” and CEO of Logica Education Co
., Ltd.,
will deliver a lecture on the features of this empathetic AI, the background leading to its development, and new possibilities in the field of
education. https://lot.or.jp/report/15169/
