AI-Care: A Conversational Agentic System for Task Coordination in Alzheimer's Disease Care
A new AI system called AI-Care aims to help people with Alzheimer's disease manage daily tasks through natural-language voice interaction. The system is built on a remote caregiving platform co-designed with individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD). It uses a LangGraph-based stateful orchestration approach to handle requests through sanitization, intent classification, context loading, safety checks, and slot collection. The goal is to reduce cognitive load for tasks like setting calendar reminders and organizing to-do lists, addressing barriers to independent use of digital tools caused by memory and thinking changes.
