Abstract:Current generative AI systems are increasingly effective at processing explicit knowledge, including retrieving information, summarising documents, generating explanations, and supporting codified workflows. However, high-level expertise also depends on tacit sensing: perceiving weak signals, recognising emerging tensions, detecting coherence degradation, and anticipating instability before formal indicators appear. Existing AI education, AI literacy, and human-AI collaboration frameworks remain centred on prompting, task execution, and productivity support and are poorly equipped to address this tacit layer of expert cognition. This vision paper argues that next-generation AI systems should move beyond explicit knowledge processing toward the longitudinal modelling of expert tacit sensing. It introduces Tacit Signal Infrastructure as a layer for capturing, structuring, modelling, interpreting, and validating expert tacit signals over time. It further defines Long-term Cognitive Operations as the practices required to maintain and govern such systems, including memory curation, semantic organisation, tacit signal modelling, reasoning calibration, and cognitive governance. Building on this framing, the paper proposes the Cognitive Operations Manager as a prototype AI-native professional role for coordinating tacit signal modelling, semantic modelling, AI system calibration, expert validation, and ethical governance. It also introduces the Cognitive Operations Research and Training Framework (CORTF) to support research, education, and workforce development. The paper contributes a conceptual foundation for designing AI systems that model expert sensing over time, positioning cognition as an infrastructural, operational, and professional domain in persistent human-AI systems.
