Using technology to age in place

Jesse Hirsh, futurist, appearing on The Social on CTV August 16 2022

I appear semi-regularly on The Social on CTV to talk about accessible technology topics. In this segment, we talk about the ways in which technology is making it possible for people to age in place with autonomy and agency.

One of the arguments I made on the show is that the baby boomers are the first cyborg generation as they have not and will not hesitate to use technology to
fight aging and to maintain their quality of life. Expect many boomers to live for many decades to come as they ride the wave of a medical revolution.
