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. 410 0$aHistory and philosophy of technoscience. 606 $aCognition 606 $aNature and nurture 606 $aHumanities$2bicssc 606 $aPhilosophy of mind$2bicssc 606 $aPhilosophy of science$2bicssc 606 $aImpact of science & technology on society$2bicssc 606 $aComputing & information technology$2bicssc 610 $aAlfred Nordmann 610 $aHistory of Science 610 $aHistory of Technology 610 $aHistory since 1800 610 $aManipulation 610 $aMeasurement 610 $aModern History 610 $aPhilosophy of Science 610 $aPhilosophy of Technology 610 $aRob Langham 610 $aScientific Ethics 610 $aVisualisation 615 0$aCognition. 615 0$aNature and nurture. 615 7$aHumanities 615 7$aPhilosophy of mind 615 7$aPhilosophy of science 615 7$aImpact of science & technology on society 615 7$aComputing & information technology 676 $a153 700 $aGreif$b Hajo$f1968-,$0959653 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765868503321 996 $aEnvironments of intelligence$92931372 997 $aUNINA
