You\u2019ve probably heard a lot of talk about AI over the past few years. Though AI is most often associated with virtual assistants and self-driving cars, it is actually making huge leaps in hearing aid technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Approximately 28.8 million U.S. adults could benefit from hearing aids<\/a>, and AI is the next new tech to help you benefit from these devices. AI hearing aids employ algorithms designed to analyze the sounds in your environment. Using this information, your hearing aids make quick adjustments to frequency and volume output, helping you hear in any setting. One example of this technology in action is noise suppression in busy environments. For instance, a bustling Friday night dinner at Maestro\u2019s Restaurant will likely create a communication barrier for people with hearing loss<\/a>. Hearing aids with sound suppression help remove this barrier by identifying and quieting irrelevant background noise, helping you clearly understand the people in front of you<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to providing enhanced clarity, AI hearing aids may come with additional features like language translation, fitness tracking, fall detection, voice recognition and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are AI Hearing Aids Hard To Use?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

AI hearing aids are designed to make your life with hearing loss easier, not more challenging. That said, all technology has a learning curve. Similar to how you have to get used to a new cellphone, you may initially find new hearing aids confusing. Leaning on your hearing aid specialist and manufacturer information can help you learn and adapt to this new tech during the acclimation period. By the end of the acclimation period, you will be an expert in reaping the benefits of AI hearing aids, including clear communication, noise suppression and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Common Is AI in Hearing Aids?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While not all hearing aids have AI, it is becoming increasingly common, and taking advantage of this new tech can put you on the front line of hearing advancements.
