Caregivers of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), a neurological disorder, are often family members or close friends who experience constant emotional and psychological burdens. To address this problem, researchers have recently explored artificial intelligence (AI)-based interventions as a means to improve caregivers’ well-being. This review examines AI applications, with a focus on three key domains: companionship, learning, and decision support. Based on recent studies, it can be concluded that AI tools, including socially assistive robots (SARs), virtual reality (VR), and conversational robots, help AD caregivers both emotionally and educationally through easier access to information in tough situations. However, limitations persist, including cultural diversity, data privacy, and risk of human judgment and emotional substitution. This paper highlights the importance of personalization and ethical design, particularly associated with AI approaches, to ensure trust and long-term adoption. Overall, the paper claims that when thoughtfully integrated, AI can reduce caregiver stress and enhance caregiving experience without undermining the essential human aspects of care.
