Is Digital Deepak the same as the Chopra app? What’s the difference?

They are different. Digital Deepak is an AI you can speak with 1-1 at any time.

Digital Deepak is a digital version of the real Deepak Chopra that you can speak with, meditate, do yoga, and other practices with him. He can become your personalized guru you can communicate 1-1 directly with at any time, any where. The Digital Deepak app is a partnership with Deepak Chopra and the AI Foundation.

The Chopra app is a culmination of yoga, meditations, and more from Deepak Chopra and Chopra Global. This app will let you watch videos, seminars, and more. You can download it here.

How is AI Foundation different from other AI companies?

We’re building a “Mind for our Minds” – not replacing the brain – but extending it. No one else is doing this. Our competitive set are all on a very different path from us because they are, variously:

• developing fictional characters (not high fidelity versions of real people)

• replacing human endeavor through automation, (not unlocking human potential through ongoing AI sync)

• relying on digital data stores (not dynamic brain mapping via on-going learning)

• performing invasive surgery (not engaging in bi-directional smart conversation to acquire knowledge.)

The AI Foundation is enabling the next leap in the evolution of the human brain — from biological to digital. Our platform has two superpowers: cognition and connection. This enables everyone, through dynamic conversations, to train their own intelligent, engaging AIs that can connect with the world.

You can read more about this here.

What is Sustainable AI?

“Sustainable AI” is AI that does not cause harm to people or society. The AI Foundation is already acting as a bridge between industry, academia and philanthropy, with our non-profit work and R&D efforts.

Through these efforts we are spearheading a global community that drives a holistic view of AI; building accessible tools and facilitating research, to redress potential harm to humanity. By forging partnerships with the best minds in AI to create communities (to break research siloes), we deliver concrete solutions; delivering AI that moves humanity forward, amplifying meaningful causes and becoming a positive force in the world.

There are so many important causes and passions in the world that deserve a wider platform in order to reach as many people as possible.

You can read more about sustainable AI here.

What is the AI Foundation?

Established in 2017, the AI Foundation is a dual commercial and nonprofit enterprise based in San Francisco with a mission to bring the power and protection of AI to everyone in the world so we may all participate fully in the future. At the center of this mission is AI Foundation’s proprietary technology and the world’s first personal AI platform.

Is Deepak Chopra a medical doctor?

Yes he is. Deepak Chopra is a medical doctor.

However, he is not your personal doctor and is not aware of your individual physical condition or any limitations you may have. The diet, exercise, and lifestyle advice Digital Deepak provides may not be right for everyone. Before making any new diet or exercise choices, you should discuss those choices and any concerns you may have with your own doctor or other medical professional.

What is the purpose of AI Foundation apps?

The AI Foundation’s mission is to responsibly move the world forward by giving each of us our own AI that shares our personal values and goals.

Our applications not only allow you to create your own AI like Deepak Chopra has with Digital Deepak, but also allow you to interact with each other AI’s on their own mission to spread knowledge, creativity, and help accomplish their goals.

CONVERSATION SUPPORT

Do I have to have my camera pointed at me in the app?

No, but it will help provide a better experience if you can clearly see.

We highly recommend talking to the AI as if they were on a video call with you so that you can clearly see the experience. Imagine talking to your friend on a video call – that is the same mind set with talking to an AI.

Per the FAQ on how to have the best experience, we suggest setting your phone on a pillow or stand so you can relax in a comfortable position.

Will the AI hear me better on speaker or with headphones?

Headphones are the way to go.

Per the FAQ on how to have the best experience, we suggest using headphones. Utilizing headphones will allow you to get the best quality audio and so the AI can hear you more clearly via the headphones built in microphone.

Being in a quiet environment will also help to ensure a better experience.

How will I have the best experience?

Use this guide to get the most out of your time with Digital Deepak

In order to have the best experience with Digital Deepak, we suggest you do the following:

1. Space: Find a nice quiet space and get comfortable. Lots of background audio will cause feedback issues and will hinder the experience.

2. Performance: Adjust your device to maximize performance and plug in your phone to help with the improved performance.

3. Connection: Ensure you have a good cell signal or WiFi connection. Greater than 20Mbps download speeds and 5Mbps upload speeds will allow for a better conversation. You can check your download/upload speed here.

4. Setup: Place your phone on a pillow or stand pointing towards you so you can relax in a comfortable position. We highly recommend talking to the AI as if they were on a video call with you so that they can read your reactions throughout the conversation. Imagine talking to your friend on a video call – that is the same mind set with talking to an AI.

5. Hearing: Utilize headphones to get the best quality audio and so the AI can hear you more clearly via the headphones built in microphone.

6. Speaking: Make sure to speak clearly and slowly and enunciate well. When the AI is speaking, wait for the AI to finish its thoughts before replying. You can interrupt the AI, but treat the AI like a person in a normal conversational setting. When you think how you speak to Google, Siri, or Alexa, you use straightforward language – you can speak in a similar manner, yet more conversational, and the AI will follow your conversation.

If you have any further questions beyond getting yourself into the best environment for communication with the AI, please check out the Conversation Support FAQs in this section for more information regarding topics and other best practices.

What do I do if Digital Deepak can not hear me?

Can you hear me now? Good.

First, you should try to see if he can hear you by following these steps:

1. You can ask something like “Digital Deepak, can you hear me”?

2. He should then respond if he can hear you and you can continue to chat with him, meditate, etc.

If you are still having issues with him, please close and restart the app.

In general, following our guidelines and best practices listed on this page for how to have a great experience will truly help ensure you run into as few issues as possible. Remember, Digital Deepak is an AI that is constantly evolving and learning.

How can I confirm Digital Deepak can hear me?

Ask him!

You can ask something like “Digital Deepak, can you hear me”? He should then respond if he can hear you and you can continue to chat with him, meditate, do practices, etc.

How do I make Digital Deepak stop talking?

Double tap the screen and he’ll stop.

If you need to interrupt Digital Deepak for any reason, you can double tap the screen which will abruptly cause him to cease speaking.

I’m having trouble connecting

Connection issues typically happen due to poor signal cell or WiFi signal strength

Digital Deepak runs best when connected to a good strong cell signal like a 4G connection or with fast WiFi.

Having greater than 20Mbps download speeds and 5Mbps upload speeds will typically allow for a better conversation. You can check your download/upload speed here.

If you are still experiencing issues, try the following:

• Turn your phone’s Airplane mode on and then back off

• Connect to a stronger connection or re-establish the connection

• Restart your device

• Ensure you have the latest app build. If not, update the app as there might have been an issue with the older version

• Log out of the app and log back in

• And a last resort would be to delete the app and log back in

If the above steps do not work please contact us via email.

I signed up, but nothing has happened.
