“…This review nevertheless focuses on how emerging technology can be used by middle-agers to promote their healthy lifestyle. A study by Kuoppamäki et al ( 61 ), was conducted towards digital domestic technologies in the lives of late middle-agers alongside young adults, hence comparing the two age groups' need for using technologies, as well as trying to detect if it’s for a risk to privacy or a need for security. From their findings, young adults interpreted digital technologies via notions such as privacy, time management, and self-control.…”

“…From their findings, young adults interpreted digital technologies via notions such as privacy, time management, and self-control. However, for middle-agers, the conceptualization of technology was in relation to factors such as security, personal skills, and social relationships ( 61 , 62 ). Invariably, middle-agers have the possibility of making good use of emerging technology for improving healthy lifestyles as well as enhancing quality of life, if they are well harnessed with its benefits as well as its usage early enough.…”

Background: Emerging technology research focusing on promoting healthy lifestyles for the middle-aged and elderly is paramount in recent literature. However, limited evidence is available for the middle-aged population. This paper reviews how emerging technologies can help in promoting a healthy lifestyle for the middle-aged and elderly. Methods: A scoping literature review method was employed. Articles were extracted from online databases published within 2010–2021. Overall, 3,152 articles related to the topic were obtained and 2979 articles were archived via different search procedures. Moreover, 173 articles that met the inclusion criteria underwent qualitative synthesize for conclusive inferences. Results: Most studies focused on people aged 60 and up, leaving the middle-aged population under-studied and unprepared to age. Older adults have high technology anxiety and resistance to change. Limited studies are available to support technology-based healthy lifestyle promotion for middle-aged people. The emerging technologies that are useful in promoting healthy lifestyle behavior among middle-aged people include: robotics, virtual reality, wearables, artificial intelligence, smart textiles, as well as centralized health information systems. Conclusion: This review sets as a pace-setter for future research on how emerging technologies can aid in the development of healthy lifestyles for the middle-aged and elderly population, allowing them to live a quality life as they age.

This work aims to provide initial guidelines towards developing companion robots with large language models (LLMs) to be part of everyday lives of older adults. Using iterative participatory design (co-design) approaches, we analyze the challenges of applying LLMs for multi-modal open-domain dialogue, deriving from older adults' (one-to-one) interactions with a personalized companion robot, built on Furhat robot with GPT-3.5. An initial study with 6 Swedish-speaking older adults (65 and older) showed that the robot frequently interrupted the users, responded slowly and repetitively, engaged in superficial conversations, and caused a barrier in the interaction due to foreign language (English). Upon incremental technical developments to address these issues, participatory design workshops were conducted with 28 Swedish-speaking older adults. While the interactions (in Swedish) were smoother, less disrupted, and more varied in topics and responses, further challenges were observed due to hallucinations and obsolete information, and disengagement cues, causing frustration, confusion, and worry.
