automentation

Most famously used in the tech industry.
A combination of the words automation and augmentation.

What some companies call AI, is really just RPA (Robotic Process Automation) that uses a bunch of automentation.

Biomechanical Augmentations

Cybernetic and/or Nanotech enhancements to the human body which provide either increased functionality of current abilities or entirely new capabilities.

His biomechanical augmentations allowed him to see in the dark and jump 30 feet into the air!

Demotional Augmentation

When you are offered a job that pays better than your previous job, yet has fewer responsibilities.

Lady : "They flew me to San Diego with an expense account, interviewed me and offered double my current rate for half the responsibilities."

Friend: "Girl, grab that job offer! It isnt every day you get a demotional augmentation."

Automination

The take over of computers doing what humans once did like controlling self driving cars, self flying taxi’s and self driving trains, etc. Everything fully autonomous.

Right now most planes, trains, and automobiles are still human assisted, but by the year 2025 an Automination will happen.

Predictability Augmentation

The process of making improvements in a place—such as a business or educational institution—to increase the likelihood of making as many things as possible predictable.

The new process or science of making as many things as possible more predictable is called Predictability Augmentation and promises to boost individual as well as group performance, safety, and even profits!

Augmentation

The technological enhancement of the human body and mind to exceed natural biological limits. It moves beyond repair (like a pacemaker) into deliberate upgrade: neural implants for instant memory recall, augmented reality lenses overlaying data on the visual field, or prosthetic limbs stronger and more dextrous than flesh. This field blurs the line between human and machine, raising profound questions about identity, inequality, and what it means to be "human" when your capabilities are downloadable and your senses are synthetic.

Augmentation Example: A construction worker with Augmented exoskeletal limbs that allow them to lift I-beams effortlessly, paired with eye implants that display structural stress loads in real time, is a cyborg not for war, but for work. Their human baseline has been permanently enhanced by integrated technology.
