  This is How Cognitive AI Reaches True Human-Level Intelligence | Peter Voss

  Sep 23, 202657 min

  What is the fundamental difference between statistical models and true human intelligence? In this throwback episode of The Edge of AI Podcast , host Ron Levy sits down with Peter Voss , the pioneer, engineer, and scientist who actually coined the term AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) back in 2001. Peter shares the origin story behind naming AGI to distinguish real "thinking machines" from single-use narrow AI systems. He breaks down DARPA’s "Three Waves of AI," explaining why current Large Language Models (LLMs) act as externalized statistical tools rather than fluid, real-time adaptive intelligences. Discover Peter’s work with Aigo.ai , a proto-AGI engine built on Cognitive AI . Learn how his team successfully automated 3,000 call center agents during Valentine's Day rushes and why he believes true AGI requires cognitive metacognition, concept formation, and a fraction of the energy that modern LLMs consume Support us through our Sponsors! ☕  Want to make content like ours?

  Collaborative AI & The Future of Learning | Dr. Aleksandra Przegalinska

  Sep 9, 20261 hour

  How do we transition from viewing artificial intelligence as a threat to harnessing it as a collaborative teammate? Welcome to another throwback episode of  The Edge of Show, in this Edge of AI directly from the vault,  host Ron Levy sits down with Dr. Aleksandra Przegalinska , vice president at Kozminski University, former MIT & Harvard researcher, and co-founder of Campus AI . Dr. Aleksandra breaks down the concept of Collaborative AI , tracing its roots back to industrial robotics ("co-bots") and explaining why keeping the "human in the loop" is essential for future decision-making. She shares how Campus AI uses AI-generated avatars, synthetic tutors, and personalized "promptable" learning spaces to transform how individuals and organizations reskill for the modern era. Discover how Web3 mechanics like liquid democracy and community tokens can decentralize educational platforms, how AI agents can act as unbiased critics during creative workflows, and why "forest bathing" is the ultimate remedy for digital burnout.
