[ Scybernethics: Shifting our Rationality ]
We are collectively/systemically trapped by a minimal, local version of our Western cognitivist rationality. Necessary, certainly, but not sufficient to solve the world's problems. We need a more comprehensive and extended enactive rationality.
Synthetic representation of keys characteristics of cognitivist vs enactive paradigm of cognition.

Is it open to (American) LLMs? 😉 Because, if so, here is a co-producted participatory sense making one:
"I have a key and important question for "you", as a virtual process simulating a living intelligence: what is your learned self-knowledge?"

Very deep and interesting article, thank you 👍. About "sedimentation", the reference to Bourdieu's "habitus" could be useful. Btw, in relation, I have coined analogically the techno-phenomenological term "tekhnicus" as the embodied deposit when interacting (bidirectionally) with digital techs.
Excellent and very interesting academic work 👍 (cf. RT)
Rem: Dialectics in practice = Enacted hermeneutical meaningful circulations between dipoles, conceptuals, technicals or socials (cf. my own work).

Lately, I have become increasingly interested in Dzogchen, which has resulted, as is often the case, in a recursive rereading of the fundamentals (two truths for the four schools, etc.), without forgetting that conceptual cognition is necessarily erroneous.
[ Buzz Word: Intelligence ]
It is a highly, not scientific but *political* word. Who defines it? Comprehensively? With what purpose?
“People call large language models ‘stochastic parrots,’ ” Thompson said. “But I think it’s insulting to parrots.”

The epistemology of modeling cognition (like LLMs) is massively overlooked. I propose a theorized & non-reductionist second-order 1P-3P Scybernethics approach, toward *meta-functionalism*.
3. Thinking isn’t just for humans—all of *life* is engaged in “sense-making.”
4. Your phone isn’t just a tool—it’s a “pharmakon” that changes how you think (psychoactive).

It's now quick and easy to integrate this one-click downloadable data (see RT👇) into a general, multimodal LLM (like NotebookLM, for example), and then discuss it. A good way to familiarize yourself with a topic before, of course, diving into the sources
