Abstract

Some of the papers in this special issue [of Pragmatics & Cognition, on Cognitive Technology and Distributed Cognition] distribute cognition between what is going on inside individual cognizers’ heads and their outside worlds; others distribute cognition among different individual cognizers. Turing’s criterion for cognition was individual, autonomous input/output capacity. It is not clear that distributed cognition could pass the Turing Test.
