A recent paper by @gsiemens et al. focussed on "artificial cognition as extending and augmenting human cognition", and here is a wonderful example of how to do it.

Can artificial intelligence classify philosophical ideas? I asked #GPT3 (not ChatGPT) to offer me tags for the 1603 sentences in my History of Philosophy and wrote a detailed post about the results, trying to measure GPT-3’s success in different ways:

@Extended_Brain @TFT Oh sorry; it's in my profile: https://t.co/1qlJ2Wzwjw

[Matthias Melcher @x28de]

@denizcemonduygu Thanks for doing the tags manually, despite it might be tempting to apply some algorithm...

@denizcemonduygu @ChrisAldrich If I can be of any help, please tell me.
I did not use Force Directed, but a circle for the densely connected, and DAG for the rest.

[Matthias Melcher @x28de]

@ChrisAldrich I would love to see this great content by @denizcemonduygu in two dimensions rather than linear. I once copied a sample into the https://t.co/dcn8eSHGcl, see https://t.co/JR1ubsGnoC

#ExcessiveLinking: if you link on a visual canvas, it is easier at least to avoid TRANSITIVE links.

[Extended Brain @Extended_Brain]

Agree with @JeffreyWebber_. Linking should be used mainly for semantic links i.e. for relationships of concepts and ideas.

@ctbeiser @andy_matuschak Great sentence. But you can drop it to the right app, see https://t.co/e9m0KHvOHo

@jarango I imported Tinderbox stuff into my own tool https://t.co/lcQasYLp4u because I found all the types of links and nodes just distracting.

[Matthias Melcher @x28de]

Many thanks, especially for the explanations on consensus.

[Matthias Melcher @x28de]

My tool has now a new Release and an updated User's Manual. But it is still a passive tool, like a hammer, not an active, distracting, patronizing and pampering prosthesis. #ToolsForThought

@jarango @saliemchiu If you want just this section I can send you a scan; email me.

[Matthias Melcher @x28de]

@jarango @saliemchiu What else? Perhaps Dillon's 1996 "Myths, Misconceptions, [...]" which attacked e.g. "Myth 1: Associative Linking of Information Is Natural in That It Mimics the Working of the Human Mind". In: Rouet et al. Hypertext and Cognition, Erlbaum

New blog post: Minimal GitHub for reassurance.

@GaleSinatra I read your book without following you :-) https://t.co/g5BBy0bNfc

Following Ben Werdmuller's and Stephen Downes's example, I have posted my OPML file on GitHub.
