Overview: The global economy is moving into an era of Intelligence Augmentation (IA). Science fiction often portrays “intelligence” as involving complementary roles of reckoning and judgment. For example, In the Star Trek series the judgment and decision making of ‘Captain Picard’ are enhanced by the reckoning skills (calculations, analysis of multidimensional information, predictions) of the android ‘Data’, a machine without human capacities like emotions. The human and machine work synergistically together to be better than their individual abilities. In the next few years, most occupations will shift to require working with a generative AI-based agent that has complementary skills and knowledge to the human worker. This talk will discuss what types of learning are most valuable for students to prepare for these IA interactions in work and life.
