Human-AI Cognitive Symbiosis di Dr. Alessandra Sala, Analytics Research at Nokia Bell Labs

Abstract: The era of a new definition of AI has arrived and it calls for a synergetic alliance of technologists, regulators and social-psychological scientists. Bell Labs is studying the limits of human cognition to define a new paradigm of Human-AI cognitive symbiosis which would amplify human intelligence at biological and cognitive levels. Exiting AI systems are still unable to amplify human capabilities into new cognitive levels. Our Augmented Human Cognition research program leverages the latest discoveries in physiological, neurological and psychological sciences along with our algorithmic AI knowledge to deeply inter-connect intelligent systems and human cognition to embark the ultimate human cognitive revolution. This talk will describe how new AI models for knowledge organization and presentation can improve critical decisions making, people general knowledge and more informed business strategies.
