Abstract

BACKGROUND: Dementia has an impact on the quality of life (QoL) of people with dementia. Tailored services are crucial for improving their QoL. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) offer opportunities for personalised care, potentially delaying institutionalisation and enhancing QoL. However, AI's specific role in approaches to support QoL for people with dementia remains unclear. This scoping review aims to synthesise the scientific evidence and grey literature on how AI can support the QoL of people with dementia.
