Knowledge and Reasoning

For AI to be useful, it needs to understand what’s being asked of it, and to know how to respond. At IBM Research, we’re working on systems to help AI better reason with the tasks it’s presented, such as understanding context and analogies, comprehension, and planning through scenarios.
