This article focuses on cognitive assistive technologies that help people with disabilities in the workplace or older adults doing the “work” of daily life. The types of work and other activities needing assistance are outlined and likely technologies summarized. We briefly discuss the ecosystem that provides access to, regulates, and pays for such assistance and how best to navigate in it. We consider the economic impacts of assistive technologies in terms of employment and the ability of older adults to remain in their own home.
