Implications of Cognitive Machines for Organizations

Abstract

Analyses and predictions about the implications of cognitive machines for organizations are a topic of further research which demands a high level of imagination in connection with the knowledge available in the literature of interdisciplinary fields of research. Under such a perspective, this chapter presents an outline of some possible implications. It starts by discussing literature results on the benefits of information technology (IT) to organizations. It proceeds by associating IT with cognitive machines, and thus it presents some implications of cognitive machines for organizations.
