Vijoy Pandey of Outshift by Cisco proposes an ‘Internet of Cognition’ as connective tissue letting specialized agents share intent, context, and reasoning across domains. The framework rests on three pillars—cognition state protocols, a cognition fabric for institutional memory, and cognitive amplifiers with guardrails—intended to let autonomous agents jointly solve problems no single agent was trained for.
