Cognitive Scientists (CS for no on): I'm impressed. You have surely given an exceptional argument which raises many profound questions concerning the foundations of artificial intelligence.

 


Cognitive scientists are increasingly aware of how individual differences can confound experimental results.

Probably most cognitive scientists believe the Mind/Brain Identity Theory, the idea that, whatever "mind" and "intelligence" are, they are rooted strictly in the brain, and do not make use of, depend on, or interact with anything non-physical.

Why Machines Should Fear - Once a curmudgeonly champion of "usable" design, cognitive scientist Donald A. Norman argues that future machines will need emotions to be truly dependable. By W. Wayt Gibbs. Scientific American (January 2004).

Cognitive scientists have demonstrated that human beings solve most of their problems using unconscious reasoning, rather than the conscious, step-by-step deduction that early AI research was able to model.

The cyborg thesis overlaps with something called "the extended mind hypothesis," associated most obviously with the philosopher and cognitive scientist Andy Clark.

Today's cognitive scientists have created a computer program which will ask questions, but this is still not proof that it is self aware.

Educational psychology
Functional neuroimaging
Gestalt psychology
Holonomic brain theory
Intentionality
List of cognitive scientists
Philosophy of mind ...

So we have two areas of study, on the one hand that which physical and biological scientists do, and on the other, that which philosophers and psychologists and cognitive scientists do.
