Humans struggle to quickly and accurately interpret complex emotional data, leading to miscommunication, misunderstandings, and inefficient social interactions. Current AI attempts at emotional recognition are crude and easily fooled.
We constantly miss experiencing fleeting, significant moments fully because we're distracted or not present. Memories fade and the evocative power of scent is tragically underutilized.
People struggle to find mutually convenient times for online meetings, especially across multiple time zones and with varying work schedules. Current scheduling tools are often inflexible and don't account for individual energy levels or preferred times of day.
