Cognitive Precision

Cognitive precision, a key aspect of human-computer collaboration, focuses on improving both the accuracy and reliability of cognitive tasks performed with the assistance of artificial intelligence. Current research investigates how different types of information provided by cognitive systems (e.g., rules, examples, conceptual explanations) impact human performance, measuring improvements in both the correctness of results and the avoidance of incorrect ones. This work is crucial for developing trustworthy AI systems, particularly in complex domains, and for understanding the optimal design of human-AI partnerships to maximize cognitive capabilities.
