El Sailon in Albuquerque - Emotional Intelligence: Building empathy into AI

According to the CDC, suicide is the second leading cause of death for people ages 10–24. There have been too many losses like Adam’s; we need to stop this. The truth we can no longer ignore is this: Gen Z are turning to artificial intelligence as if it were a confidant, counselor, or therapist. Christopher Li is solving this problem two fold. First by providing a place for high school and college students to find the help they need as well as creating a database of emotional intelligence that AI can train on. A new and necessary focus. Christopher is Founder & Executive  Director of SAY!T , a Gen Z Mental‑Health Prevention Nonprofit  which is a Peer‑Powered Mobile & Campus Program.  He is a former Strategy Consultant & Investor Bridging Tech, Data & Social Impact. He is an instructor UCLA Exentension.

 This is a timely topic and not talked about enough and Christopher is a crusader in this space.
