The Cognitive Amplification Engine

di Martin K. Ettington (Autore)

Martin Ettington, 2026

This book describes a way of thinking, not a tool. It argues that artificial intelligence is not intelligent, that fluent output is not understanding, and that the real risk in human–machine interaction is not that machines will replace us—but that we will stop thinking clearly while using them. The central idea of the book is cognitive amplification: using tools to extend human reasoning while preserving human judgment, intent, and responsibility. Methods like this, however, face a practical problem. They are easy to understand and difficult to apply consistently. Most people already believe they think in stages. In practice, intent is vague, constraints are assumed rather than defined, options are prematurely narrowed, and conclusions are accepted because they sound coherent. Under time pressure or when interacting with persuasive systems, discipline collapses. This is where the Cognitive Amplification Engine (CAE) enters—not as an authority, and not as an artificial mind, but as a structured environment. This book is a companion for the CAE plugin for wordpress which helps automate this structured thinking process
