Mental healthcare counselor using large-scale generative AI technology

Dr. Song, a medical artificial intelligence (AI) specialist company, announced that it has supplied AI mental health kiosks 'Weromy V2' to Pyeongtaek Public Health Center, Songtan Public Health Center, and Anjung Public Health Center.

⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Weromy, which has been installed in places that are easily accessible for citizens' mental healthcare, is a kiosk for consulting worries that provides customized answers based on the user. When the user tells their worries in voice, the kiosk recognizes it and provides suitable advice and solutions based on the data it has learned by itself.

The worry consulting mode of the kiosk generates suggestions, behavioral guidelines, etc. that are helpful for the user's worries in real time using a large-scale language model. Currently, each consultant is given a persona, and six modes of answers are provided: wise words, wise woman, future me, philosopher, comedian, and meditator. Among them, the user can check the answer of the mode selected by the user. Also, the answer that comes out at this time can be saved in the form of a QR code through the smartphone camera function, so it has the advantage of being able to check it again anytime, anywhere, not just once.

For example, when you enter the worry, 'Is the study I'm doing right for me?' and select the 'future me' mode, you will receive an answer like 'You're not the only one who thinks that way. Many people have similar worries. Now you have time to find out what you really want. Think carefully about what kind of life you want to live in the future.' You will receive different answers depending on the situation, even if you select the same mode for the same worry.

Mental health self-diagnosis functions have also been significantly enhanced. The types of self-diagnosis related to depression, stress, and dementia have been increased to 9, and customized diagnosis is recommended according to the user's condition. Through the kiosk, users can self-diagnose and identify problems, and if necessary, they can be guided to mental health centers or psychological support centers to help them find and solve mental health problems early.

In addition, with the upgraded version launched as Weromy V2, it is possible to use it more broadly, not only with six modes of worry counseling but also with questionnaires on stress, depression, etc., and AI psychological counseling conversations. Psychological counseling conversations can be carried out through various psychological counseling scenarios, multi-turn conversations using large-scale language models, and multi-prompt-based generative AI-powered conversations, allowing for a variety of counseling conversations tailored to the user's concerns.

Weromy, a digital mental health kiosk, adopts voice recognition technology for higher convenience, following psychological guidelines that say that the mind becomes lighter from the moment you start talking about your worries and counseling, so you can enter your worries and receive counseling as if you were having a conversation.

“As social interest in mental health is increasing recently, we expect that the use of Weromy in public institutions will help improve citizens' mental health,” said Yoon Hyun-ji, CEO of Dr. Song. “We will do our best to make it possible to use it in the mental healthcare field through continuous AI technology development.”

Dr. Song's AI psychological analysis kiosks can be found not only at public institutions such as Pyeongtaek City Hall, Songtan Public Health Center, and Anjung Public Health Center, but also at Seocho-gu Youth Center, Green Computer Academy schools, etc.
