Now in burgeoning stages of development, artificial intelligence (AI) is a newer addition to hearing aids. With the understanding that treating hearing loss is an important of your overall health and well-being, AI-equipped hearing aids have incorporated technology that can track your heart rate and body activity – in the same way an Apple Watch or FitBit might. Starkey’s Livio AI hearing aid also has the capability to send alerts if the wearer has a fall, which is an incredibly useful benefit for one’s personal safety.
