Afterthoughts on conceptual analysis and human nature.What is the role of the environment, and of the information it provides, in cognition? More specifically, may there be a role for certain artefacts to play in this context? These are questions that motivate "4E" theories of cognition (as being embodied, embedded, extended, enactive). In his take on that family of views, Hajo Greif first defends and refines a concept of information as primarily natural, environmentally embedded in character, which had been eclipsed by information-processing views of cognition. He continues with an inquiry into the cognitive bearing of some artefacts that are sometimes referred to as 'intelligent environments'. Without necessarily having much to do with Artificial Intelligence, such artefacts may ultimately modify our informational environments. With respect to human cognition, the most notable effect of digital computers is not that they might be able, or become able, to think but that they alter the way we perceive, think and act.History and philosophy of technoscience.CognitionNature and nurtureHumanitiesbicsscPhilosophy of mindbicsscPhilosophy of sciencebicsscImpact of science & technology on societybicsscComputing & information technologybicsscAlfred NordmannHistory of ScienceHistory of TechnologyHistory since 1800ManipulationMeasurementModern HistoryPhilosophy of SciencePhilosophy of TechnologyRob LanghamScientific EthicsVisualisationCognition.Nature and nurture.HumanitiesPhilosophy of mindPhilosophy of scienceImpact of science & technology on societyComputing & information technology153Greif Hajo1968-,959653UkMaJRUBOOK9910765868503321Environments of intelligence2931372UNINA
