How can emotionally intelligent voice AI support our mental health?

What's this blog post about?

Emotionally intelligent voice AI has the potential to significantly enhance mental health support by offering emotionally intelligent interactions and picking up on vocal cues related to mental and physical health. These advancements can address the loneliness epidemic, improve well-being through empathy and emotional support, and help identify early signs of mental health conditions like depression and schizophrenia. Voice AI can also guide users through mindfulness exercises, behavioral nudging, and therapeutic conversations to manage emotions, achieve goals, and regulate impulsive behaviors.
