Emotional Intelligence
Incorporating emotional intelligence into AI decision-making processes to enhance empathy and social awareness.
Research Overview
Emotional Intelligence research at Interlock focuses on developing AI systems that can recognize, understand, and appropriately respond to human emotions. Our work goes beyond simple sentiment analysis to create systems that can comprehend emotional nuance, empathize with users, and incorporate emotional considerations into decision-making processes.
By enhancing AI with emotional intelligence, we're creating systems that can interact with humans in more natural, supportive, and socially aware ways. This research has applications across healthcare, education, customer service, and any domain where human-AI interaction benefits from emotional awareness.
Key Research Areas
