There is a high unemployment rate among young people in Uganda (83%, UBOS 2018). This is due to a significant skills gap and school dropouts. Many graduates (bachelors and masters) also struggle to find jobs due to limited skills.                                                  

Many software projects still face challenges, leading to failures due to budget or deadline overruns or delivering products that don't meet client expectations, despite the use of agile methodologies that involve clients closely in the project.                                    

Can AI models engage in realistic conversations with people and perform complex tasks (behaving as a specific persona, such as a client in a psychologist's session)? And how can we combine generative AI tools to create a credible embodied conversational agent?
