Human vs AI for Participant Support in a Digital Dementia Prevention Trial

In this webinar, Catherine will present preliminary findings from a study drawing on real participant support requests collected during the BetterBrains trial. The study examined whether AI-generated responses could match or outperform human research assistant replies to study-related queries. Using a blinded evaluation design, both community-based older adults and research professionals rated AI versus human responses on quality, professionalism, and empathy, alongside reporting their experience with and trust in AI support. The findings offer new insight into the potential role of artificial intelligence in supporting participant-facing processes within digital dementia prevention trials.
