From Chatbots to Partners: What Makes an AI Life Companion?

AI Companions are everywhere today—apps and chatbots that can talk with us, answer questions, or provide quick advice. They’re fun, often useful, and sometimes even feel like friends. But how far can they really go?
In this session, we will explore the exciting next step: AI LIFE companions. Unlike generic AI Companions, which respond in the moment, an AI life companion grows with you. It understands not just what you need, but who you are—your life story, your values, character traits, goals, and your Life Purpose.
Together, we’ll look at:

• Why today’s AI Companions capture attention but often feel shallow.
• What makes an AI Life Companion more than a chatbot.
• How this shift could support holistic wellbeing, balance, and resilience.
• A glimpse of MetisAI Life Companion , an emerging project that puts this vision into practice.

Join us for this 30 minute talk followed by open discussion.
