The modern information environment has made it increasingly difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. Additionally, some information is deliberately crafted and disseminated to exploit human cognitive processes. This environment is highly complex, which has made it difficult to study using traditional experimental methods. In other areas of cognitive science, researchers have addressed similar challenges by leveraging computational cognitive models alongside e...

Recent advances in generative artificial intelligence have significantly improved the fluency and responsiveness of human–AI interaction. However, purely generative approaches remain insufficient for enabling dynamic and flexible interaction in real-world environments, which are inherently uncertain, evolving, and context-dependent. Effective interaction over extended periods requires structured representations, different forms of cognitive principles, and mecha...
Human cognition involves processes and phenomena taking place at scales ranging across orders of magnitude in time and complexity that Allen Newell called the bands of cognition. In this talk, I present evidence that cognitive architectures provide a unifying framework for knowledge and reasoning across the bands of cognition. Going down to the neural band, integrating symbolic knowledge and neural-like mechanisms enables the development of neuro-symbolic archit...
