Researchers have developed CareMirror, a system designed to support the wellbeing of family caregivers for individuals with dementia. Through interviews with 14 caregivers, the study explored how such an ecosystem could provide longitudinal reflection, personalized support, and controlled sharing of information with clinicians. Caregivers expressed a desire for attention to their own wellbeing and for clinical visibility that could lead to meaningful follow-up, but also voiced concerns about the burden of reflection and the implications of automatic data sharing with healthcare providers. The findings highlight the need for AI systems that support reflection and communication without supplanting caregiver input or clinical judgment. AI
