Abstract

Integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into wearable technology has revolutionized health tracking, offering users personalized insights into their well-being. However, gaps exist in empirical validation, personalized monitoring, and ethical considerations. Purpose: This study aims to explore the transformative role of AI-powered wearables in health tracking, addressing existing gaps in the literature and offering novel insights into their potential. Methodology: A literature study was employed to analyze peer-reviewed articles published from 2018 onwards. Empirical validation studies and user-centric research were scrutinized to extract insights into AI algorithms' accuracy, reliability, and personalized capabilities in wearables. Result/Conclusion: The analysis reveals that while AI-powered wearables hold promise, empirical validation is crucial to ensuring their effectiveness. Personalized monitoring strategies are essential for empowering users to make informed decisions about their health. Addressing ethical concerns surrounding data privacy is paramount for fostering user trust. Overall, AI-powered wearables significantly advance health-tracking technology, offering users a holistic and personalized approach to managing their well-being
