The Theory of Artificial Cognition: The Foundation Missing from Artificial Intelligence

By Herman Deboard

"The Theory of Artificial Cognition" explores the critical relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and cognition, arguing that true intelligence cannot exist without the foundational elements of cognitive processes. The book posits that while current AI systems exhibit remarkable capabilities, they lack the essential dimensions of human-like cognition--such as thought processes, emotional understanding, and experiential learning--limiting their effectiveness and adaptability.

Through an interdisciplinary approach, the book delves into the historical context of AI, examines the implications of emerging technologies like quantum computing and brain-computer interfaces, and highlights the importance of ethical considerations in AI development. It emphasizes the need for collaboration among researchers, developers, and ethicists to integrate cognitive principles into AI design, ensuring that intelligent systems enhance human experiences rather than replace them.

The book also challenges readers to rethink traditional definitions of intelligence, encouraging a nuanced understanding that encompasses both human and artificial forms. By addressing the limitations of current AI and advocating for the incorporation of cognitive principles, "The Theory of Artificial Cognition" presents a compelling case for the responsible development of AI technologies that reflect the complexities of human cognition, ultimately aiming to create systems that are more effective, ethical, and aligned with human values.
