Navigating the Age of Artificial Intelligence:
Transforming Ageing and Aged Care
From artificial intelligence (AI) to advanced robotics, we are currently living through the 4th industrial revolution. However, the Aged Care Royal Commission in 2021 found that "the aged care system is well behind other sectors in the use and application of technology". This webinar will offer insights into emerging technologies transforming ageing and aged care.
Our first speaker, Prof Evonne Miller, is a Professor of Design Psychology and Director of the QUT Design Lab, will explore how the unprecedented fusion of physical, digital, and biological spheres is changing the “what” and “how” of doing things, as well as “who” we are – and will transform the experience of ageing and aged care.
Our second speaker, Dr Barbara Neves, an award-winning sociologist of technology and ageing, will share practices and perceptions surrounding AI in aged care.
Attendees will:
- Learn about emerging technologies transforming ageing and aged care.
- Explore future care scenarios, both at home and in residential aged care.
- Understand research gaps in artificial intelligence within aged care.
- Consider whether and how the use of AI in aged care may contribute to ageism.
