Augmented intelligence: Enhancing human capabilities

Recent times have seen an exponential increase in the use of artificial intelligence in numerous regions. Fields like education, transport, finance, and health have made drastic improvements in the last decade; from predicting the stock market prices and driverless cars to predicting cancer cells in human body. Artificial intelligence and Machine learning combined, have shaped the world to be a better place than yesterday. In this paper, I describe a novel approach towards augmenting artificial and human intelligence with the goal of enhancing the capabilities of human activity using adaptive intelligent agents and deep neural networks. Any intelligent system would have come across a situation where human intervention is essential; wherein human intelligence is required for the complete functioning of the agent. This crossover of the worlds is the key to augmenting both human and artificial intelligence. We can enhance the capabilities of both the entities by introducing behavior and context as variables in the cognitive process.
