The Next Frontier in AI: Computers That Think Like Humans



  • Cognitive computing uses data to simulate human thought process and solve complex problems
  • Neuromorphic computing, using artificial neurons to mimic the human brain, could power robots and smart devices with less processing power
  • Companies developing and using the technology could be good investment opportunities
  • Two major classes of cognitive computing: independent tasks and augmentation of human capabilities
  • Cognitive systems can learn, understand natural language, and interact more naturally with humans
  • Neuromorphic chips promise exponential improvements in computing performance, able to sense, learn, infer, and make real-time decisions
  • Tech leaders with mature platforms and key data-center providers are well-positioned to benefit from cognitive computing
  • Ethical implications of cognitive computing must be considered, including data security and privacy, impact on employment, ingrained bias, and safety concerns
