Across the United States, the older adult population is growing faster than ever, while becoming rapidly more diverse – by race, geography, language, country of origin, and beyond. This demographic shift dovetails with a period of unprecedented innovation, propelled in the 21st century by increasingly sophisticated algorithmic models and the ever more gigantic datasets that fuel them. Such progress provides promising opportunities to reimagine how society can support older adults. In fact, innovative solutions can dramatically enhance the quality of life for older adults, particularly around key social determinants of health , including housing, transportation, and food security.
