AI-Fortified Metacognition Strengthens Metaintelligence
With development of higher-order thorough thinking (HOTT) metacognition skills, thinker-doer leaders (TDLs) strengthen their metaintelligence.
From
@GoogleAI:
“Metaintelligence, as a concept, refers to the ability to understand, control, and coordinate different aspects of intelligence, particularly creative, analytical, practical, and wisdom-based approaches, in problem-solving. It's about how these different cognitive functions interact and are managed to achieve optimal outcomes. In essence, meta-intelligence is a higher-level cognitive function that goes beyond general intelligence by encompassing the coordination and interplay of various cognitive skills.
Beyond General Intelligence:
While general intelligence focuses on solving convergent problems (narrowing down options), meta-intelligence focuses on divergent thinking, pattern recognition, and finding creative solutions.”
@EnclaveAcademy’s
#ThinkToThink™ Pause Model for activating decision-critical metacognition (DCM) further triggers pre-decision metacognition (PDM) to fully engage the thinker-doer leader’s brain—and its mind—for tapping into the plurality of
#metaintelligence (MI) for best-effort thinking (BET).
The Alphabet Soup Loop (ASL) in the above paragraph pulls you out from
#CognitiveStasis.
Again, from
@GoogleAI:
“Cognitive stasis, also known as cognitive inertia or cognitive immobility, refers to a state where an individual's thinking and decision-making processes become stagnant or resistant to change.
It's a mental state characterized by a reluctance to adopt new ideas, perspectives, or approaches, often preferring to stick with familiar or established patterns.
This can manifest as a difficulty in processing new information, a resistance to change, or an inability to adapt to new situations.”
Metacognition to the rescue!
Today’s AI-assisted “thinking about thinking” (metacognition)—to improve human thinking’s outcomes—requires a steady stream of new terminology to linguistically pave neural pathways toward deeper, wider, and higher metacognitive approaches to everyday cognitive psychology—particularly for the aforementioned corps of TDLs.
Take seriously metacognition.
Take seriously metaintelligence.
Take seriously AI-fortified metacognition to strengthen metaintelligence.
Let’s pause to ThinkToThink™—with AI-fortified higher-order thorough thinking (HOTT).
With AI support, release from cognitive constraints your thinking’s “thinkably thinkable thinkingness” to more fully—
Come to think of it.™
—whatever “it” is.
