Through trial and error, I found a wonderful psychologist, who was able to help me through that time by using talk-therapy. Later on, I realized that when I was speaking with my friends and colleagues, I was simply repeating the conversations I previously had with my psychologist.
That’s when I first realized: "If I can help people by repeating these conversations, then we could teach a machine to do the same. I felt that if the artificial machine intelligence could be clinically proven to be safe and effective, then we could solve a big problem for the world."
