Research
Most AI systems today are sophisticated pattern matchers that miss what actually matters in human communication. They catch the words but not the weight behind them, the structure but not the significance.
At Sothiq, we're studying the architecture of human understanding itself: how context shapes meaning, how emotional states color interpretation, and how real comprehension happens in the spaces between explicit statements.
Observational Studies
We combine observational studies of natural human interaction with computational models of emotional processing. This isn't about sentiment analysis or mood detection. It's about understanding the deeper mechanics of how humans create and share meaning; the subtle interplay between words, context, and intention.
Research Results
The difference between technical accuracy and genuine understanding is where most AI fails. Our research is dedicated to fixing that failure by developing AI that recognizes the human behind the message, not just the message itself.
