How can artificial intelligence and virtual avatars be used in investigative interviews with children?
Published:
On December 6th, OsloMet and SimulaMet welcome you to the conference where three world-leading psychology professors talk about opportunities and challenges in the use of artificial intelligence and virtual avatars in revealing interviews with children. In addition, we will present the Avatar project, with a demonstration of the avatar.
What possibilities lie in the use of artificial intelligence and virtual avatars in investigative interviews with children, and what challenges does it entail? In this conference, the research group ARGI (Next Generation Avatar for Information Gathering Interviews) and Simulamet invite you to a conference on the topic.
