For your mock project $-"$ Developing AI$-$Driven Chatbots for Tailored Health Education", create a Gantt Chart using Figure $10\mathrm{.}11$ in the Verzuh text as an example. $($Notes: $1.$ you will want to go back and review chapter $10$ of the Verzuh text, particularly pages $201208$; $2.$ you will not be required to perform $$Step $5$: Assign and level resources.$)$

Additionally, for your mock project "Developing AI$-$Driven Chatbots for Tailored Health Education" $,$ using the work packages you created in created in Week $5,$ create an estimated budget. You may create and use your own budget template or download an appropriate template off the internet.

Developing AI$-$Drivendevelopment of an AI$-$powered chatbot tailored for chronic illness management is imperative in the healthcare sector. Kurniawan et al$.(2024)$ emphasize the necessity of incorporating personalized health education for users with chronic illnesses. By leveraging the success of prior versions, this project is dedicated to creating a comprehensive solution that includes a detailed Work Breakdown Structure $($WBS$),$ network diagram, budget, risk management plan, and deliverables.

Project Management Framework

The WBS$,$ inspired by Figure $9\mathrm{.}3$ of the Verzuh text, offers a hierarchical breakdown of the project into manageable phases:

$-$ Project Initiation: This phase establishes the foundation by identifying stakeholders $($e$.$g$.,$ healthcare providers, patients, IT personnel$),$ crafting a communication plan, defining project scope and deliverables $($tailored to the target audience$),$ and creating a project charter.

$-$ Requirements Gathering: This phase delves into understanding user needs $($Version B$)$ specific to the target audience $($e$.$g$.,$ focus on general health topics for the public or chronic disease management for patients$).$ It identifies functionalities $($Version A$),$ gathers health content $($Version A$),$ and critically identifies data privacy requirements to ensure compliance with regulations like HIPAA $($Version A$).$ User personas $($additional point$)$ can be developed here to better understand user needs and personalize the chatbot's approach.

$-$ Design and Development: Here, the chatbot takes shape. This phase includes designing the conversation flow, considering accessibility features for users with disabilities $($Version B$),$ developing a Natural Language Processing $($NLP$)$ engine, integrating health content, and training the AI model $($Version A$).$ Additionally, tasks should be dedicated to implementing robust security measures to safeguard user data $($Version A$).$

$-$ AI Model Training Sub$-$task: This sub$-$task focuses on training the AI model with high$-$quality data and employing techniques to mitigate bias. This includes

Data Augmentation: Creating synthetic data to address underrepresented categories in the training data, ensuring the model performs fairly across different demographics.

Fairness Metrics Monitoring: Tracking metrics like accuracy and recall throughout the training process to identify and address potential biases in the model's outputs.

$-$ Testing and Refinement: Rigorous testing is essential. Internal testing ensures functionality $($Version B$),$ user testing gathers UX feedback $($Version B$),$ and design$/$content iteration refines the chatbot based on findings $($Version B$).$ This phase also includes ensuring compliance with relevant regulations $($Version B$).$

$-$ Deployment and Maintenance: The final stage involves deploying the chatbot on websites or applications $($Version B$),$ developing training materials for users $($Version B$),$ and establishing performance monitoring processes $($Version B$).$ Continuous improvement ensures the chatbot remains relevant and effective $($Version B$).$

Network Diagram:

The diagram effectively demonstrates the sequential progression of the project phases, commencing with project initiation and then proceeding to requirements gathering, design, and development. Testing and refinement are conducted iteratively throughout the development process. Finally, the chatbot is deployed and upheld, signifying the successful culmination of the project stages.
