According to Adkins, new products on the market "integrate a
range of cutting-edge technologies, including cognitive computing,
emotion analytics, affective computing, biometrics, artificial
intelligence, robotics, game mechanics, advanced psychometrics,
augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality
(MR)."
"I was thrilled to be asked to write the article on advanced
learning technology for the magazine's annual international
edition," comments Adkins. "It fits perfectly with the Metaari
(formerly Ambient Insight) focus on the extraordinary innovations
coming out on the training and education market. I was able to
interview several companies that have brought incredible
innovations to the market."
The article focusses on companies that have developed advanced
learning products using artificial intelligence, cognitive
learning, game mechanics, augmented reality, and virtual
reality.
As Adkins writes, "These product innovations are exponential in
the sense that they are not incremental linear innovations but
rather fundamentally new types of learning products. The common
characteristic of these new learning technologies is that they
enable real-time behavior modification." For example, the
integration of artificial intelligence using platforms like IBM's
Watson enable truly personalized learning, long the "Holy Grail" of
the learning industry.
Adkins concludes the article by writing, "The advent of these
new products is rapidly altering the global training and education
ecosystem...According to Plutarch, when Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon River with his
legion in 49 B.C.E., he quoted the familiar Greek phrase
Anerriphtho kubos, the equivalent of 'There's no turning
back now.'"
