Problem the AI is intended to solve

The feature's main objective is to mimic real-life situations in the workplace using predefined scenarios

Expected benefits

1. CAISY provides interactive, scenario-based content powered by AI where a learner can practice new skills in a safe space. This AI simulation content allows learners to choose a role, practice specific skills by responding to AI prompts, and receive adaptive, personalized feedback to guide their development 2. The user is introduced by an avatar that is generated with AI text-to-video. After the introduction, the learner can either interact by typing or using speech-to-text (STT) and text-to-speech (TTS) services for more immersive and natural interaction. When the conversation is over, the learner will receive a rating and evaluation

System outputs

speech-to-text (STT) and text-to-speech (TTS) services for more immersive and natural interaction.
