Conversation AI program for social anxiety

I was just laying in bed thinking about social anxiety for some reason. I don’t really have an issue with it, but my friends do from time to time. <br><br>I had the idea to write a little application like a web app that could be used to train for social anxiety in a way. <br><br>I know that virtual voicing assistant apps such as Google Maps for directions in your car, or Siri for the iPhone, can generate different voices with realistic tones, inflections, and emotions. <br><br>I think it could be cool to have a website where you choose your character and are put in a room with an old man shopkeeper. You could complete a little tutorial for keyboard controls and a little practice exercise. Then when you think you are ready you go through a “storyline” of your character being on a quest like in D&D. Each time you enter a new tavern or shop, you practice social skills.<br><br>So for example, in the first town you enter there might be the shopkeeper. “Order your equipment and supplies for the journey” maybe a villager that you have to ask for information. “Ask the tavern keeper what news there is in the region.” <br><br>I don’t know how realistic it would be, but in practice phases you could choose characters to talk to, with different tones and emotions. <br><br>I think it would be cool. <br><br>That’s all.
