Everything about Intelligence amplification

Use of information technology to augment human intelligence

Intelligence amplification (IA), also known as augmented intelligence or cognitive augmentation, refers to the use of information technology to enhance human cognitive capabilities, such as reasoning, learning, problem-solving, and decision-making, rather than replacing human intelligence with autonomous artificial systems. The idea was first proposed in the 1950s and 1960s by cybernetics and early computer pioneers. Wikipedia →
