MAIA
The Mobile Artificially Intelligent Ally, also called MAIA, was developed at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles with the goal of offering AI-enabled, self-administered mental health support within relaxing virtual reality environments. Working with expert mental health professionals, the Cedars-Sinai research team developed an AI system to produce idealized responses of a compassionate, non-judgmental, and helpful mental health ally.
