Join Tova and Caroline as they sit down with Craig Tucker, founder and CEO of VERN, for a live conversation about human-centered AI.
We will explore how AI detects, interprets, and mimics human emotional cues through data-driven models, without consciously experiencing feelings or empathy itself.
Discover how avatars are evolving to listen, empathize, and guide users with emotional awareness.
We’ll cover:
- Why emotional intelligence in AI matters for humans and businesses
- How VERN is designing machines that truly understand people
- Investor perspectives: optimism, skepticism, and opportunity
- Ethical implications of reading and responding to human emotions
- The human future of AI: from artificial to authentic intelligence
We have so many questions for Craig — and we’re sure you do too! Come out, hear how he built it, and ask away.
At York Effect we believe great ideas come alive in conversation, connections spark trust, and curiosity drives the future.
