- yu3zhou4 3y agoInteresting project! How do you model emotions and what is the source of data in MoodMinder?
- marans 3y agoWe appreciate your curiosity about our project! It is really precious for us and your engagement fuels our progress. To shed light on your questions, let us delve into our approach: At the core of MoodMinder is a conceptual cognitive model, meticulously crafted to regulate emotions. Emotions are a central pillar of this model, as they significantly influence our perception and interactions with the world. To test and validate our model, we've integrated the power of GPT into our framework. We utilize GPT's remarkable ability to understand and generate human-like text and a game to customize our training process. This synergy empowers MoodMinder to fine-tune its emotional intelligence. As we continue to enhance MoodMinder's capabilities, the fine-tuning of GPT remains a pivotal step. This process ensures that the model aligns even more closely with the nuances of human emotions, creating a symbiotic relationship between AI and human emotion understanding. Thank you for your interest in our journey! We're excited to have you accompany us as we explore the fascinating landscape of emotions through technology.
- rpastuszak 3y agoAre you using GPT to author or edit your responses?
- marans 3y agoWe utilize ChatGPT to enhance general responses, making them personalized and efficient for each user's unique inquiry.
- rpastuszak 3y agoSmall piece of feedback: GPT can be useful for editing purposes, esp. for people writing in their second language or trying to find a more concise way of expressing themselves. (I'd often throw a phrase at GPT to see if it feels natural/idiomatic, instead of bothering my better half - an editor) Having said that, if your goal was to make the responses here (on HN) more personalised, you achieved the opposite. Perhaps this is a sign of my personal paranoia, but I'm still not sure if I'm talking to a person or a bot. I don't mean to sound harsh, just thought it might be useful for you to know. (FYI, I meant the responses here on HN. )
- marans 3y agoI genuinely appreciate your feedback and want to assure you that I'm indeed a real person responding to all comments. I'm curious to understand more about why you feel that way – could you kindly share more insights? Your input is highly valuable in shaping our approach.
- bravura 3y agoBecause you respond to things in a monotone style with robotic/chat-bot-like cheeriness. Your comments lack empathy and you aren't "reading the room" at all. This is totally off-brand and sleazy if you're selling mental health advice. Particularly the fact that your responses don't demonstrate natural emotional variation, when you are literally selling a tool to help with emotion modulation.
- ps0161 3y agoon the third or fourth screen in meditation is spelt 'mediation'. hth
- lessaligned 3y ago...this could make some people VERY angry :)

- quickthrower2 3y agoI love that you want to help but is this, like, reviewed by mental health professionals?
- marans 3y agoAbsolutely, your concern is valid! Our product has been crafted by a team of cognitive psychologists to ensure its foundation is rooted in expert knowledge and insights. Your well-being is at the heart of what we do.
- quickthrower2 3y agoThere needs to be detail about who you are on the site. Credentials and/or what research group or university affiliation. Also needs privacy statement about how data is handled. And with regards to what is sent to open AI. I wouldn’t use this at all. There are 3+ entities (bubble, bubbles infra, openai, yourself) with access to super sensitive information about me, people I know etc.
- marans 3y agoAppreciate your input! We're in our early stages and value your concerns. Bubble is for development only; we don't share data with OpenAI or collect user info. Rest assured, no personal data is shared or stored on our servers. Stay tuned as we enhance our MVP and provide full credentials and affiliations for transparency.
- esperent 3y ago> we don't share data with OpenAI Yes, you do. You state on the front page that this is built on ChatGPT.
- marans 3y agoWe appreciate your concern. To clarify, while we do utilize ChatGPT for our project, we don't share personal data with OpenAI. Your privacy and data security are paramount to us.
- CaptainFever 3y agoThis is great! A novel and interesting use for AI (I played the game). However, I have a request. Please add a privacy policy for collecting emails at the end. Thank you!
- marans 3y agoThank you for your positive feedback and for trying out the game! We've addressed your request. We will add a privacy policy regarding email collection in a few minutes.
