“Advances a rigorous systems-level theory of co-intelligence, positioning learning as the central organizing principle of next-generation AI-enabled enterprises and societal infrastructures”—Balaraman Ravindran, Head of Wadhwani School of Data Science and AI, IIT Madras, and Fellow of AAAI 

This book reveals how Nextgen AI systems are revolutionizing the way businesses create value in what the authors call the Co-Intelligence revolution. Gone are the days of simply making and selling products or services. Now, humans and these AI systems combine to produce and use tokens of intelligence to craft interactive experiences, shifting value creation from mere transactions to dynamic, co-intelligent engagements.

The authors introduce a groundbreaking paradigm of co-creatively generated intelligence (COIN): relational intelligence emerging between humans, machines, institutions, and ecosystems, where co-intelligent organizational ecosystems optimize decision-making, personalize experiences, and drive new forms of agility.

Packed with case studies, including OpenAI, L’Oréal, SAP, Siemens, JPMorgan Chase, Tesla, and emerging digital public infrastructures, this book details how COIN is transforming enterprises in innovative ways. It outlines how businesses can leverage Nextgen AI to enhance operations, offerings, and customer experiences while making a positive impact on the environment. This work will captivate scholars and practitioners alike, offering pathways to co-create a symbiotic, sustainable future.
