Technology as an empathetic caregiving companion with Dor Skuler


Listen Later

When Dor Skuler’s grandfather needed in-home care, aside from the nursing skills of the live-in caregiver, success hinged on one thing: the ability of the care provider to have empathy and to build a relationship with his grandfather. This experience helped Dor to notice and start to tackle a mammoth problem that could change the lives of older adults struggling with isolation and loneliness: Is it possible to provide a compassionate and empathic companion through AI?

In this episode you will hear:

  • What ElliQ is and how Dor’s experience with his grandfather became a catalyst for creating it
  • Why ElliQ is so different from other common AI such as Alexa and Google Home
  • How Dor and his team are building empathy into ElliQ 
  • What a day with ElliQ looks like for a senior struggling with loneliness
  • How ElliQ can be a valuable part of the healthcare system
  • How your organization can be part of this project
