Stub should be removed or changed to a redirect

I was reading an article on a blog and the CC phrase was used as if it was a new invention. This page implies the same thing. It's just AI in a modern era where hardware is fast and cheap enough to start using it for customer facing applications. The existing page is an advertisement from a marketing person, not a reasonable page describing something real.

So sayeth this marketing guy who used to be very technical. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ithinktfiam (talk • contribs) 18:07, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

agreed. i don't understand why it's not a redirect to AI. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.113.182.10 (talk) 01:20, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It should mention that the term refers to a particular approach or product line put forward by IBM (http://www.research.ibm.com/cognitive-computing/). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.189.74.139 (talk) 15:13, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a researcher at Thomson Reuters who's currently working on this stuff, both within and outside the specific Watson framework. I'll do my best to try to shed some more and better light on what's going on in cognitive computing from the position of a skeptical insider. martian_bob 16:24, 18 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cognitive computing is moving from being something synonymous with science fiction, to being a lot more real, and enabled through technology platforms provided by several well known companies, as well as by lesser-known start-ups. While I am currently employed by Hewlett Packard Enterprise and work on the HPE Haven OnDemand team, my edits to the content of this page are intended to improve the definition of cognitive computing to bring it inline with both today's commercially available platform capabilities (from multiple companies) as well as help to provide references to research and investment in future innovation in this space (again from multiple companies and organizations). I openly encourage all practitioners in this space to contribute this page, so that the term cognitive computing is not undermined by perceptions of being a gimmick or some overstated marketing concept. I also encourage links to real-world use cases and examples so that anyone looking for more information can learn more about how cognitive computing can be applied. Let's work together to inspire the next generation. Hughesonline (talk) 16:54, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
