Cognitive AI focuses on functionally modelling human memory, reasoning and learning inspired by the evolution of neural systems over 500 million years, and decades of work in the cognitive sciences. This talk will introduce work on cognitive architecture, the chunks graph data and rules language, and its application in a series of web-based demos, including smart homes, industrial robots, and ongoing work on natural language. Semantics are expressed in terms of cultural norms, following Philip Johnson-Laird who noted that humans don’t rely on the laws of logic and probability, but rather by thinking about what is possible. Future work will seek to integrate emotions and cognition. This is very much in contrast to the Aristotelian tradition of logic, formal semantics and model theory.

Maven of the Month
We are also inviting top experts in AI and Knowledge Technologies to discuss major socio-technological topics with an audience that comprises both members of the Knowledge Media Institute, as well as the wider staff at The Open University. Differently from our seminar series, these events follow a Q&A format.
