A recent AARP study showed that eight in ten adults 50-plus report having used some form of AI. So how are older adults currently using AI and what new applications can they look forward to in the future? In this episode of Aging Rewired, we explore that question through two different conversations.
First, we are joined in the studio by Fan Zhang, Principal Engineer, Accessibility Innovation at Meta. Fan and Sheila discuss how older adults can harness the power of AI through wearables, such as Meta’s AI glasses, to make their daily lives more accessible. To learn more about Meta’s AI glasses visit meta.com/ai-glasses.
Then, you’ll hear from two Senior Planet employees (Katherine Lam Bellacero, Curriculum Manager and Wanda Woods, Technology Trainer) about what they’re hearing from older adults in the classroom, how Senior Planet develops AI curriculum, and what future improvements to aging they hope AI will bring.
