Cognitive Science will change artificial intelligence
The world is fixated on Sophia, the robot these days and her
journey into the world. Sophia is a product of artificial intelligence
technology & is currently being studied by many researchers and scientists
to connect the distinctions between humans and machines. It is so marvelous to
see these machines running on AI technology, operating independently, learning
from their environment & interacting like humans.
Artificial Intelligence is developing & advancing to claim the human-level
intelligence. It is time to acknowledge methods & principles being used to
deploy the abilities of these machines & making them think like humans. It
is important to ask if this is even possible?
Artificial Intelligence has made a lot of progress with the help of multiple
intelligence theory such as:
- - Logical-Mathematical Intelligence which uses
logical reasoning and problem-solving methodologies
- - Linguistic Intelligence which uses computational
linguistics, spoken language recognition, and synthesis
- - Spatial Intelligence using computer vision,
spatial and imagery reasoning
- - Interpersonal and Intrapersonal Intelligence
using AI agents that interact with each other, creating self-awareness and
emotion in AI
- - Musical Intelligence is the understanding of
music and creation
- - Bodily-Kinaesthetic Intelligence which is
related to robotics and so on.
These are few of the general methodologies and algorithms,
helping to develop human-like introspection and intuition to solve a variety of
problems. The most important of them all is Cognitive Science, the study of how
the human mind works and mental processes, drawing various principles from
psychology, linguistics, and neuroscience. Artificial Intelligence is nothing
but an attempt to create cognitive beings, mapping out to understand all the cognition,
human or otherwise.
I have invested a lot of time analyzing the use of AI,
Machine Learning, Blockchain, Security etc. in the higher education space and
how cognitive science is transforming the way education is imparted.
Last decade saw AI addressing several challenges in
learning, which included language processing, reasoning, planning and cognitive
modeling. AI helps to organize and synthesize content with deep learning
systems emulating human behavior. The progress using AI and Machine Learning in
education has been impressive but there is still a lot of work which needs to
be done for advancing in the science of learning.
Artificial intelligence along with cognitive science is
capable of bringing change & growth in learning & building unique pathways
for individual learners. There are technologies like virtual mentors, analyzing
the interaction data that are helping to address issues like interconnectedness
& accessibility of classrooms worldwide.
Letâ??s keep the positives in mind, AI can play a role for number of purposes in
the education field:
- It can help communicate with autistic students, pick their facial expressions
& non-verbal cues which is otherwise quite difficult for a human to do.
- It can help act as a proxy for teachers in online learning programs. This would
help lot of students benefit from distance learning
- It will help digital learning become more prominent in the coming years.
Bottom Line
The way AI and other technologies are being used in classrooms today; very soon
we will see AI help in the development of the minds, giving a boost to the way
we interact, transforming the way we treat each other and how we lead our
lives.
