A Minneapolis-based company uses AI to give hearing aids advanced features like real-time language translation, fall detection and alerts.
We hear a lot of headlines about concerns over artificial intelligence and what it might mean for the future. But it's not all bad: Consider hearing loss.Sound is everywhere. But if you're one of the estimated 40 million Americans who have trouble hearing, says Paul Belting, a hearing aid user,"you are truly missing more than you realize.""What I found myself doing is that I was faking it, you know, at business meetings," he said.
At Starkey's campus in the suburbs of Minneapolis, the company hopes artificial intelligence will incentivize getting help sooner. Part of the problem is perception. These hearing aids, powered by AI, aren't just for grandma and grandpa. They can also translate foreign languages. These AI hearing aids recalibrate up to 80 million times an hour, allowing them to act on their own, like a healthy human brain that scans your environment.
