Communication plays a crucial role in preventing dementia, but some elderly individuals don't have people to talk to.

No friends so have to talk to robot?

Having to put up with stupid glitch brain robot is even more miserable and depressing than dementia.

AI don,t work with the person I am caring for. She has been using an iPhone since 2010 and has lost her ability to negotiate the software. Like the simple function of depressing the home button and telling Siri to call a person. Where five years ago was able to negotiate her iPhone. I suggest a workshop every month for carers to brainstorm situation they have difficulties with dealing with. The carer is best positioned person to help and should be listen too when deciding how to go forward with their client. Doctors and Therapist will override the carer suggestion just because of hierarchy and that they know best. It should be a collaboration between all party and better emphasis should be place of the carers suggestion.

How damaged is a society when basic communication and friendliness has to depend on computers?

Sad.

I was just trying out the vocal conversation function on ChatGPT this morning by coincidence. It's pretty inpressive but I think human facial expressions, warmth of body language and real human laughter and compassion can't be replaced by AI.

Suddenly, I am afraid to get a day older after reading that quotation. Absolutely bonkers.

Should I die, Sato-san, I promise to leave you my AI collection.

who says it plays a crucial role? this is what happens when a politician wants to use the term ai to pretend to be doing something current.

it’s nonsense. nowhere is communication mentioned as something preventative in dementia and alzheimer’s studies. communication doesn’t affect genetics or proteins.

That's because Japanese culture is built with a culture that only communicates what the others want to hear. They really do not try to communicate to others. So in the end, no communication skill is developed by the vast majority of the population. I don't think it's because there is no one to to talk to. They just do not know how to communicate.
