L'IA peut aider les étudiants à donner un sens à leur vie
Opportunité
The Learning Planet Institute (LPI) aimed to develop a mobile app for students to explore their core values, life purpose, and strengths through guided self-reflection and peer discussions. Because LPI is a nonprofit organization with a limited budget, creating a highly interactive app with numerous features was not feasible.
Solution
We were eager to create a useful application, so we proposed an innovative solution: building a Discord chatbot integrated with the LLM (Open AI ChatGPT) API. This approach would eliminate the need for front-end development, significantly streamline distribution, and effectively reach our target audience, which consists of heavy users of Discord.

Building Ikigai+ with Cergy University, the first AI-powered Discord bot to help 40.000 students find purpose in life
We collaborated with the Learning Planet Institute to create a platform aimed at helping individuals discover their values, strengths, and life purpose. Cergy Paris University was the first live user, piloting Ikigai+ with 500 students in September 2023. Now, with a successful beta phase, the objective is to integrate Ikigai+ into Cergy University's curriculum to engage its 40,000 students in meaningful self-reflection and dialogue.
Why did we built the ChatGPT powered Discord bot?
The primary goal is to seamlessly integrate Ikigai+ into Cergy University's infrastructure, leveraging the successful pilot experience. This integration will empower students to align their personal aspirations with societal needs.
Discord Bot used during Workshops
Ikigai+ workshops will be embedded within Cergy University's curriculum, providing students with structured self-reflection sessions and opportunities for peer discussion.Through the Ikigai+ application, students will embark on a journey to uncover their core values, strengths, and aspirations.
How works our Discord Bot?
- Python Framework: Ikigai+ is built on a Python framework, facilitating interactive chatbot functionality and robust data management.
- Interactive Steps: The chatbot guides students through a series of questions and prompts, refining responses iteratively.
- Recommendation Engine: AI algorithms suggest job opportunities and media content aligned with students' values and aspirations.
- Real-time Sessions: The application supports real-time workshops, managing user groups and facilitating peer interactions.
- Discord Integration: Seamless communication among students is ensured through integration with the Discord API.
