The Editorial Aspects of “Cognitive Computing Reimagined”

Cognitive Computing Reimagined by Dr. Mehmet Yildiz introduces Neural Artificial Cognition™ (NAC), presenting a shift from viewing cognitive computing as a branch of artificial intelligence to a broader scientific understanding of cognition itself. The book distinguishes between intelligence and cognition, emphasizing that cognition encapsulates the processes underlying intelligent behaviors. Through interdisciplinary insights from neurobiology, cognitive psychology, and systems science, NAC promotes the view that cognition is a universal phenomenon manifesting in both biological and artificial systems. It encourages deeper exploration of cognitive principles as essential for future advancements in intelligent systems, proposing that scientific understanding, rather than just technological innovation, should guide developments.
