A Beautiful Mind: Principles and Strategies for AI-Augmented Human Reasoning

T he past century ha s witnessed incredible technological change . The many benefits and conveniences o f technology are accompanied by new complexities and human challenges that affect work, home, social, and civic realms. Th ere is a w idening gap "between a growing complexity of our own making and a lagging development of our own capacities" (Botkin et al., 1998) . Now, artificial intelligence promises to increase the rate of scientific discovery and innovation exponentially, creating new changes and p otential complexities to which humans must adapt (Friedman, 2017) . On the other hand, new AI tools, especially generative AI models, may help people to engage with the growing volume and complexity of information in their reasoning tasks such as decisionmaking and problem solving.
