The goal of the study is to confirm the idea of AI-powered Technological Surrogate Physiotherapist (TSP), by demonstrating its effectiveness and value as a new technology-based contribution to OA healthcare. Participants will be randomized to one of three groups: (1) the conventional PT group receiving the exercise program delivered through in-person sessions; (2) the AI-guided group following the program through the TSP after an initial PT session; or (3) the combined group receiving both in-person PT sessions and AI-guided home exercise. All individuals will take part in the study for 12 weeks, and data will be collected at baseline and 12 weeks after randomization.
