Emotional AI: How Technology Is Enhancing Human Well-Being

Technology is no longer focused only on efficiency—it is beginning to understand emotion.
Emotional AI explores how artificial intelligence is being designed to recognize, interpret, and respond to human emotions, reshaping the future of mental, emotional, and social well-being.
This book examines how emotionally intelligent systems are used in healthcare, wellness apps, education, and digital support platforms. From mood detection and personalized feedback to adaptive support systems, readers discover how AI can enhance emotional awareness and promote healthier interactions between humans and technology.
Rather than replacing human connection, Emotional AI highlights how technology can support empathy, self-regulation, and emotional insight when used responsibly. The book also addresses ethical concerns such as privacy, emotional data sensitivity, and the importance of human oversight.
Written in clear, accessible language, this book is ideal for wellness professionals, technologists, educators, and curious readers interested in the intersection of psychology and AI.
As machines learn to understand emotions, the challenge is not whether they can feel—but how they can help humans feel better.
Emotional AI offers a thoughtful look at how technology can enhance well-being without losing humanity.
