RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY

We recommend that the Government convene a task force to create a roadmap for the establishment of several AI Centres for Lifetime Wellness. Whereas the proposed AI Centres for Longevity described earlier in this document are clearly within the sector of health care and health tech, these centres would focus on the application of AI to the creation of methods and technologies to promote wellness in the elderly in all aspects of life besides health, ranging from financial wellness, continuing education, happiness, psychological wellbeing, neuroplasticity and active social involvement.

Considering the vast amount of data and information about citizens being collected by financial institutions, telecom companies, etc., there are a large number of options and avenues for how AI, machine learning, big data analysis and other predictive analytical systems could utilise that data to create personalized recommendations for how citizens 60 years and older can optimise their lifestyles and behaviours to achieve a high degree of wellness, stability and social involvement and activity.

The number of companies, researchers, projects and technologies active in this space (AgeTech, FinTech for the Elderly, Continuing Education, Brain Training, etc.) is very high, and rapidly growing. Therefore, the demand for practical and sophisticated AI-driven approaches for improving and optimizing the products and services in this space is very high. Thus, the establishment of dedicated centres focusing on providing companies active in this space with advanced AI-driven support and solutions would both serve to generate sizeable revenues by selling and licensing methods and technologies to these companies, and also help optimise products and services aiming to improve the overall, lifetime wellness of elderly individuals in all aspects of life besides health.

We recommend that the government convene a task-force to create a roadmap for the establishment of AI Centres for Lifetime Wellness.

1. Whereas the proposed AI Centres for Longevity would focus on optimizing health into old age, these centres would focus on optimizing the wellness of elderly individuals in all aspects of life besides health.
2. The specific scope of these areas of life would include financial wellness, continuing education, psychological wellbeing, and social involvement and activity.
3. These centres would serve as R&D hubs that apply AI, machine learning, big data analysis and other predictive analytical techniques to the vast quantities of financial and behavioural data on UK citizens currently being generated, in order to create products and services that optimise elderly wellbeing, financial wellness, overall activity, neuroplasticity and social Involvement.
