## Overview

PlatoAI makes a music survey explorable through a conversation between Socrates and Glaucon. One character poses questions while the other draws on retrieved responses to develop the discussion.

## Process

I built the Flask application around semantic retrieval and conversational context, with clickable citations that expose supporting survey responses. Embeddings are prepared from the source CSV for retrieval.

## Result

Completed the project in approximately 3.5 hours. Saved HTML dialogues are available for preview; their citation modals require the running application.
