Meet MIRA, the Mental Health Virtual Assistant
MIRA is a chatbot, which is a computer program or software application that is programmed to have a human-like conversation with a person.
MIRA uses Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (including Natural Language Processing), which means that it is programmed to try to understand the meaning behind what a human is saying to it, in order to figure out how best to respond and help that person. It also means, the more conversations it has with individuals, the more it will learn from those conversations over time, and the smarter it will get.
The MIRA chatbot is specifically programmed to help individuals find more information on mental health services and programs. It can also provide information on general or specific mental health related topics.
