Preparing for aging: Understanding middle-aged user acceptance of AI chatbots through the technology acceptance model.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Preparing for aging with personalized technology is crucial due to the growing elderly population. Artificial Intelligence (AI), notably AI chatbots in healthcare, has transformed technology by simulating human-like conversations.
