Abstract:

In the context of rapid advancements in intelligent technology, digital age-friendly adaptation has emerged as a critical pathway to actively address the challenges of population aging. The intelligent divide, represented by AI technology, stems not only from insufficient digital literacy among older adults at the individual level but is also deeply rooted in practical barriers such as cognitive thresholds, environmental configurations, interactive interfaces, and algorithmic mechanisms. To address these issues, efforts should be made to enhance digital inclusion and well-being for the elderly through four dimensions: cognitive age-friendly adaptation to rebuild digital trust, environmental age-friendly adaptation to improve infrastructure, interactive age-friendly adaptation to optimize human-machine interaction, and algorithmic age-friendly adaptation to enhance algorithmic negotiation. Furthermore, it is essential to analyze the cost logic, boundaries of rights and responsibilities, intergenerational relationships, and value dimensions of digital age-friendly adaptation by examining tensions such as "gains and losses," "public and private," "old and young," and "disconnection and connection," thereby revealing its limitations and constraints at institutional, technological, and ethical levels. Promoting the transformation toward digital age-friendly adaptation requires adhering to principles of graded governance, collaborative co-construction, and freedom and respect, while coordinating resource allocation and multi-stakeholder participation to build a warm, restrained, and selective all-age-friendly intelligent society.

Key words: digital age-friendly adaptation, intelligent divide, active response to aging, technology for good, age-friendly intelligent society
