Three European efforts, one virtual companion

MindBuddy is a virtual companion that supports mental wellbeing. As the demonstrator in the mental health domain, it brings together three European efforts:

  • ARGENTIC for agent orchestration and decentralised, energy-aware AI
  • CERTAIN for governed AI, data access, data quality checks and provenance
  • SLAIF as the hardware enabler for model training and inference

All with human oversight at the core.

Trustworthy AI, together

This is what trustworthy AI for Europe looks like when projects join forces. Thank you, Izidor, for sharing ARGENTIC with Slovenia’s SME and research community!
