AI Chatbots have been replacing a lot of traditional teaching tools, and we are finding them in some very surprising locations. The technology that can be used to actively engage in meaningful conversations with people will soon be used for helping out with parents.
Lifespark, a startup company, has developed their new messenger bot called ParentSpark. ParentSpark offers for a friendly, private, and personalized approach to parenting advice. The program allows you to control just how much the bot will talk with you, so she doesn’t become that annoying friend.
ParentSpark uses stories and personal anecdotes in order to give parenting lessons to adults. While the advice is normally easy to forget and hard to apply, ParentSpark can gently reiterate their messages. It is programmed to be more like a personal friend and less like a cold algorithm.
All of the advice received is research-backed, so you can be sure that you won’t fall for any old wives’ tales. While most AI services collect data from all users to try to make the software learn from everyone, ParentSpark filters out just enough so that you are still able to rely on of what she tells you and won’t be impacted by a few poor users.
