Cognitive Computing and Augmented Intelligence

This chapter explores the intricate workings of human cognition to bridge the gap between machine and human intelligence. Human cognition includes complex phenomena such as perception, reasoning, learning and decision-making. Augmented intelligence, a symbiotic relationship between humans and machines, amplifies cognitive abilities, fostering innovation and problem-solving. By comprehensively studying human behavior and cognition, cognitive computing endeavors to create systems that not only understand but also interact with us in profoundly human-like ways, enriching the landscape of artificial intelligence. As machines evolve to comprehend and collaborate with humans, cognitive computing emerges as a transformative force, reshaping industries and enriching lives through unparalleled insights and problem-solving ability.
