A Taxonomy of Cognitive Capability Gaps in Generative and Agentic AI
Cognitive AI seeks to move beyond language generation and autonomous task execution toward systems capable of sustained reasoning, adaptive behavior, persistent memory, and self-regulation. While generative and agentic AI have demonstrated impressive capabilities across a wide range of tasks, many fundamental cognitive functions remain fragmented or weakly developed, limiting reliable operation over extended time horizons. This paper presents a taxonomy-driven survey of the major cognitive capab
