AbstractEurope has called attention to the importance of e-inclusion of older adults. Society is indicating that the developers, websites and devices are causing age bias in technology. This affects living independently, the values of ethical principles associated with an older person, and digital ageism: which is age-related bias in artificial intelligence systems (AI). This research attempts to investigate the association between digital ageism (measured by digital social participation (DSP), age, cognitive function, gender, health), technology anxiety and enthusiasm, and assistive technology devices during the period 2019- 2021. The assistive technology device that we will investigate in this study is the adoption of a service that is designed for online health consultations.Keywords: technology anxiety, technology enthusiasm, digital ageism, artificial intelligence, older adults
