Did you have an assistant or a team?
I did not have an assistant. Every aspect of Emotion Encoded, from reaching out to professionals and analyzing public data to writing the briefs and maintaining the website, was executed solo. This initiative is a personal commitment to independent transparency in AI.
// Origins
What was the inspiration?
After four years of my bachelor's degree without using AI for a single task, I used it to draft a letter for a bad car deal. When I realized the model had hallucinated legal cases and I had initially believed it, my mind went to the critical stakes: if it is this easy to mislead an individual, how easy is it to trick professionals in medicine, law, and high-stakes infrastructure?
// Momentum
How was this research conducted so speedily?
I worked on this project every single day. Without the distractions of a traditional 9-to-5 job, I have been able to dedicate my full time and energy to conducting this research and publishing findings at an accelerated pace.
// Technicals
Who manages the platform?
I built this website on GitHub myself and I continue to work on it every day. Because I manage the code and the content simultaneously, if you spot any technical errors, please understand I am only human and constantly iterating.
// The Horizon
What is next for you?
I am preparing to apply to graduate schools to pursue my PhD in Artificial Intelligence in High-Stakes Fields. I am incredibly hopeful about the future and the potential for this research to influence safe AI integration.
