WHAT IS AUGMENTED INTELLIGENCE?
4. 4
Definition
C o p y r i g h t @ S a m i r A s a f , 2 0 1 7
01
• The theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally
require human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-
making, and translation between languages.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)
02
• Combining human and artificial intelligence (AI), in order to make managerial decisions.
It requires the application of appropriate AI techniques, and then overlaying that
intelligence with human input and expertise.
AUGMENTED INTELLIGENCE
03
• Intelligence amplification (IA) (also referred to as cognitive augmentation and
machine augmented intelligence) refers to the effective use of information
technology in augmenting human intelligence.

History
C o p y r i g h t @ S a m i r A s a f , 2 0 1 7
Aristotle invented syllogistic logic, the first formal deductive reasoning system.
LOGICAL REASONING
John McCarthy coined the term "artificial intelligence" as the topic of the Dartmouth
Conference, the first conference devoted to the subject. Demonstration of the first running
AI program, the Logic Theorist (LT) written by Allen Newell, J.C. Shaw and Herbert Simon
(Carnegie Institute of Technology, now Carnegie Mellon University). See Over the holidays 50
years ago, two scientists hatched artificial intelligence.
MODERN ROOTS
Combining AI and the IoT (Internet of Things) is the best way to unleash the enormous
potential that both technologies bring to the enterprise, says jaxenter.com’s Rick Delgado.

Relevance to Business Strategy & Planning
C o p y r i g h t @ S a m i r A s a f , 2 0 1 7
• New technologies are changing business models,
creating new opportunities, and enabling new
innovations
• Leveraging Augmented Intelligence allows managers
to enhance the quality of both strategy and execution
TECHNOLOGY-ENABLED
• The explosion of big-data leverages both structured
and unstructured data for predictive analytics
• Natural Language Processing (NLP) and cognitive
analytics on unstructured data provides deeper
insights for strategy development
DATA-DRIVEN
FORWARD-LOOKING
Augmented Intelligence provides forward-looking insights
leveraging all data and information sources.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
9. 9
Human Mind is subject to Biases
C o p y r i g h t @ S a m i r A s a f , 2 0 1 7
The tendency for humans to search for,
interpret, focus on and remember
information in a way that confirms one's
pre-conceptions
Confirmation Bias
The tendency for unskilled individuals to
overestimate their own ability and the tendency
for experts to underestimate their own ability.
There are many other human biases that we need
to be aware of and try to limit.
Dunning-Krueger effect

Increasing threats to cyber-security
C o p y r i g h t @ S a m i r A s a f , 2 0 1 7
Cyber security, also referred to as
information technology security, focuses on
protecting computers, networks, programs,
and data from unintended or unauthorized
access, change, or destruction.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY (IP)
Computer Security Risks is any event or action that could cause a loss of or damage to
computer hardware, software, data, information, or processing capability.
