AB - This paper proposes a novel AI-based model to support the construction of life narratives for the elderly, grounded in the theory of embodied cognition. In later life, the wealth of experiences, memories, and the resulting narratives play a pivotal role in maintaining identity formation and psychological well-being. However, conventional AI approaches have faced limitations in capturing the nuanced, relational, and context-dependent aspects of human experience. Drawing upon enactivism, the theory of extended cognition, and experientialism, this study seeks to establish a conceptual foundation for an AI system that authentically reflects and supports the process by which older adults construct and reminisce about their life histories. To this end, the research first explores the embodied significance of aging and reviews core theories of embodied cognition to present and comparatively analyze individual AI models based on each perspective.
Ultimately, by synthesizing these models, this paper proposes an “Integrated Embodied Cognition Model” along with the underlying principles for fostering meaningful interaction between humans and AI.
