LLM-Generated Coaching Prompts

Enhancing Physical Activity With LLM-Generated Coaching Prompts: A My Heart Counts Study

This pilot study aims to evaluate whether personalized coaching prompts generated by a large language model (LLM) can effectively increase physical activity levels among participants. The study will involve 50 participants who will receive daily text messages, either personalized by the LLM or generic, over a 14-day period. Participants will share their HealthKit data for analysis. The findings will inform the development of future versions of the My Heart Counts application, enhancing user engagement and health outcomes.
