13 The new era of Cognitive Computing: Systems that understand, reason, learn and interact UNDERSTAND REASON LEARN INTERACT Cognitive systems understand imagery, language and other unstructured data like humans do. They can reason, grasp underlying concepts, form hypotheses, and infer and extract ideas. With each data point, interaction and outcome, they develop and sharpen expertise, so they never stop learning. With abilities to see, talk and hear, cognitive systems interact with humans in a natural way.
