Abstract
A recent study by Ding et al. explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in predicting dementia risk over a 10-year period using a multimodal approach. While revealing the potential of machine learning models in identifying high-risk individuals through neuropsychological testing, MRI imaging, and clinical risk factors, the imperative of dynamic frailty assessment emerges for accurate late-life dementia prediction. The commentary highlights challenges associated with AI models, including dimensionality and data standardization, emphasizing the critical need for a dynamic, comprehensive approach to reflect the evolving nature of dementia and improve predictive accuracy.
