RE:Love the news this morning :) The only question I have is what is the business model for this tool? Will it be broadly used for public health, by law enforcement and social workers to intervene in specific cases, for individuals, for employers, for insurance companies? The only concern I'd see, at the end of the day, is that if the info is used in a way that leads to negative impact in those 'targetted' that this may exacerbate the problem, to a certain extent (i e. increase in premiums or loss of insurance coverage,)?

("Nexalogy"), is in the process of developing an artificial intelligence ("AI") and machine learning ("ML") tool to detect depression and anxiety. The tool explores sets of data and text to analyze and distinguish emotions and moods to determine one's mental state and if the creator of that text is suffering specifically from depression or anxiety. Nexalogy designed their tool to focus on depression and anxiety detection. The latest research suggests that the most prevalent mental illnesses are depression and anxiety which are estimated to affect nearly one in ten people worldwide, over 676 million people. Identifying these conditions in their early stages is critical in addressing the significant public health concerns surrounding these illnesses that lead to self-harm and suicide. (Source: https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.05249). The Company believes this will be a beneficial tool in various industries such as the airline industry with pilots, soldiers in the military and doctors and nurses in the health care industry. The outcomes thus far verified by the Nexalogy team demonstrate that the AI tool shows a high confidence level when detecting mental illness, circa 72% when detecting emotions through text.
