Where the Agricultural Revolution harnessed domesticated animals
for pastoral farming, and the Industrial Revolution leveraged
machines for factory production, so today the Computational
Revolution is advancing computers to augment human intelligence.
Indeed, many now argue that the promise of exascale computing and
the slow migration towards a computational society may represent a
new threshold in human history. This "transcension" of earlier
stages of tool-mediated work and learning foreshadows a momentous
change in the kinds of cities we might build, the kinds of medicine
we might practice, and the kinds of education we might provide.
What is perhaps most surprising about the current Computational
Revolution, however, is its expanding reach. The question that many
now ask is "what is the trajectory of this human-machine
symbiosis?" It would appear that we are on the cusp of a sea change
in our capacities to augment human intelligence. But what is the
future of work and learning? Will augmented intelligence help us in
transforming a waning industrial society? These are the kinds of
questions that we explore in Augmented Intelligence: Smart Systems
and the Future of Work and Learning.
