GirlTalk AI
AI-powered platform that generates personalized podcast clips to provide advice and support.
UC Berkeley AI Hackathon (Cal Hacks) · San Francisco · 2025

Overview
Inspired by the need for a relatable female role model, GirlTalk AI was developed for the UC Berkeley AI Hackathon. It allows users to write their concerns into a chatbox and receive a personalized podcast clip from our AI host, Aisha. The platform leverages Llama API to generate personalized, empathetic text responses tailored to each user's specific situation, while Murf.ai API transforms these responses into humanized voice clips that make girls feel welcomed and supported. This creates a safe, supportive space for users to get advice tailored to their specific situations, moving beyond generalized online content. The platform also provides curated mental health resources and allows users to browse previously generated clips.
