Assistive AI: Smarter Hearing

with Bridget Burke

Stop saying "say that again." Learn about OTC hearing aids, earbuds, and "noise-busting" tech with expert Bridget Burke. Join us for a clear, beginner-friendly AI hearing guide.

Missing punchlines at lunch? Asking people to “say that again” on the phone? Let’s make hearing help feel simple, not overwhelming.

In this fun, beginner-friendly class, AI Expert Bridget Burke will help you explore today’s AI-powered hearing assistance from FDA-regulated OTC hearing aids (for adults with perceived mild–moderate hearing loss) to captions, earbuds/wearables, and smart “noise-busting” features.

She will also do a quick CES 2026 snapshot, including what Auracast (Bluetooth broadcast audio for public spaces) could mean for libraries, theaters, and community events. 

Join us for clear explanations, real talk about privacy/tradeoffs, and a smart checklist so you can choose confidently.
