Project Summary
Vision Statement: To revolutionize the entertainment landscape by enabling instantaneous, mood-based viewing recommendations using cutting-edge AI technology, thereby transforming how viewers interact with media platforms.
Project Idea: This project will develop a proprietary AI system that analyzes viewers’ current mood and personality traits to recommend the most suitable media content instantaneously. This will decrease decision fatigue and enhance user satisfaction on entertainment platforms.
Needs Assessment
- Market Analysis: Research indicates a growing demand for personalized media consumption. Viewers are often overwhelmed by choices on streaming platforms, leading to decision paralysis.
- Technology Gap: Current recommendation engines primarily suggest content based on past viewing habits or popular trends, not real-time emotional states.
- AI’s Role: By integrating generative AI technologies, we can create dynamic models that understand nuanced human emotions and suggest content that aligns with the viewer’s current mood, enhancing user engagement.

Required Technologies:
- Natural Language Processing (NLP) to interpret user inputs about their mood.
- Machine Learning algorithms for mood prediction models.
- AI-driven content recommendation systems.
Current Skills:
- Basic understanding of AI and machine learning principles.
Development Needs:
- Advanced training in NLP and emotional AI.
- Expertise in developing and deploying scalable AI systems.
Learning and Development Plan
- Online Courses: Enroll in specialized courses on Coursera and Udacity focusing on AI, NLP, and recommendation systems.
