  • 2 Cognition

       As used here, the term "cognition" refers to all processes by which the sensory input is transformed, reduced, elaborated, stored, recovered, and used. It is concerned with these processes even when they operate in the absence of relevant stimulation, as in images and hallucinations....
       [G]iven such a sweeping definition, it is apparent that cognition is involved in everything a human being might possibly do; that every psychological phenomenon is a cognitive phenomenon. (Neisser, 1976, p. 4)
       Man is describable as a dual processor, dual memory system with extensive input-output buffering within each system. The input-output system appears to have substantial peripheral computing power itself. But man is not modeled by a dual processor computer. The two processors of the brain are asymmetric. The semantic memory processor is a serial processor with a list structure memory. The image memory processor may very well be a sophisticated analog processor attached to an associative memory. When we propose models of cognition it would perhaps be advisable if we specified the relation of the model to this system architecture and its associated addressing system and data structure. (Hunt, 1973, pp. 370-371)

  • 12 happy

    •• happy, more than happy

    •• Happy 1. fortunate; lucky; feeling or expressing pleasure, contentment, satisfaction, etc. 2. (in polite formulas) pleased (A.S. Hornby).
    •• Английское слово happy – не совсем то же самое, что русское счастливый. Скорее оно означает довольный. Are you happy here? – Тебе здесь нравится? Отсюда и чрезмерное, на первый взгляд, more than happy: I’ll be more than happy to help you означает просто-напросто я буду рад (я всегда готов) помочь вам.
    •• * В интересном интервью Ады Баскиной в «Новой газете» (http://2004.novayagazeta.ru/nomer/2004/41n/n41n-s23.shtml) много верного, но есть, на мой взгляд, и неточности. Вот, например, такой пассаж:
    •• Американцы в лучшую сторону отличаются от русских своим позитивным отношением к жизни. Оптимизмом. Известно, что на вопрос, как дела, американец автоматически отвечает: отлично! замечательно! великолепно!.. А когда я говорю своей соседке: «Леночка, вы прекрасно выглядите...» – она начинает: «Ой, да что вы! Я всю ночь стирала. У меня мешки под глазами, голова раскалывается, растрепанная вся...». Все у Леночки в жизни более-менее нормально, но она, как всякий русский, акцентируется исключительно на плохом. А американец...
    •• Помню, поинтересовалась однажды у своей коллеги-социолога Шэрон, как живут американцы. Она отвечает: «Большинство американцев очень счастливы». Я на нее вылупилась: какой же надо быть идиоткой, чтобы такую фразу произнести! Тем более социологу! Да в какой такой общности людей большинство счастливо?! А где же смерть близких, супружеская неверность, бомжи и безработные, болезни?.. Тысячи людей в Америке не имеют медицинской помощи, потому что у них нет денег на оплату страховки... Что за бред она несет?
    •• А у самой этой женщины вид довольно счастливый, и я подумала: вот что личное удовлетворение делает с человеком – превращает его в идиота! Попросила Шэрон рассказать о себе. И Шэрон рассказала... У нее был муж, с которым она прожила несколько лет в постоянных скандалах, – он ее бил, затерроризировал детей до нервных припадков... После развода отобрал у Шэрон с детьми дом. «Но теперь мы развелись, и я совершенно счастлива! – говорит она. – А детей психолог вылечил, и они теперь тоже совершенно счастливы. Правда, сына моего недавно ограбили и избили, он лежит в больнице вторую неделю. Но ему уже лучше, ему сильно повезло – все срослось нормально, и он счастлив».
    •• «А дочь?» – спрашиваю я, уже боясь продолжения. «А у дочери был жених Пол. Они два года встречались и были совершенно счастливы. Но мы католики, а родители Пола протестанты, и они были против их брака. Поэтому молодые расстались. Пол вскоре женился. Дочь долго переживала...». Я сижу молчу – ни жива ни мертва. Боюсь уже задавать вопросы: налицо семейная драма – два года встречались, расстались, слезы, девушка переживает... А Шэрон продолжает: «Но это было давно, полгода назад. С тех пор она познакомилась с другим парнем и очень счастлива».
    •• И тут я поняла: это не диагноз, это установка. Установка на то, что все вокруг хорошо, за исключением того, что скоро будет еще лучше. Некоторая доля неадекватности в таком восприятии жизни есть, конечно. Но по большому счету подобное отношение к жизни мне нравится больше, чем наше постоянное нытье и жалобы на жизнь.
    •• Все это рассуждение построено на неправильном понимании слова happy. В «Моем несистематическом словаре» о различии английского (американского прежде всего) happy и русского представления о счастье сказано очень кратко: «Скорее оно [happy] означает довольный». Хотел бы добавить, что русское представление о счастье интуитивно формулируется с большим завышением, ну просто поэма экстаза какая-то. Из-за таких завышенных требований – сдержанная, мягко говоря, оценка жизни (см. статью нормально «Моего несистематического словаря»).
    •• Конечно, у разных американцев разное представление о happiness, но в целом оно, пожалуй, «на полтона ниже», чем у нас. И самое главное – «градус счастья», по-видимому, разный у существительного (все-таки ближе к нашему) и прилагательного, которое употребляется рутинно.
    •• Вот пример из только что полученного официального письма:
    •• I would, of course, be happy to meet with <...> when an agreement is finalized.
    •• В переводе единственно правильный вариант – рутинное Я буду рад встретиться (интересно, что по-русски сослагательное наклонение, вроде бы соответствующее английскому would, не требуется, более того – нарушало бы узус и даже, по-моему, грамматическую норму).
    •• Похожие различия рассматриваются в работах выдающейся польской лингвистки Анны Вежбицкой (Anna Wierzbicka). Например, в книге Semantics, Culture, and Cognition: Universal Human Concepts in Culture-Specific Configurations разбираются такие «непереводимые» русские слова, как душа, судьба, жалость, тоска, пошлость и т.д. Интересен диахронический разбор cлова friend – эволюция значения данного слова в английском языке от «вертикального» (глубокая, эмоциональная дружба) к нынешнему «горизонтальному» (поверхностная дружба, знакомство, просто нахождение рядом – Your friend here). Со словом friendship этого не произошло, как не произошло в русском языке и со словом друг (или если и произошло, то в гораздо меньшей степени). Насколько я знаю, слово happy (с его «эквивалентами» в других языках) в ее работах не рассматривается.

После развода отобрал у Шэрон с детьми дом. «Но теперь мы развелись, и я совершенно счастлива! – говорит она. – А детей психолог вылечил, и они теперь тоже совершенно счастливы. Правда, сына моего недавно ограбили и избили, он лежит в больнице вторую неделю. Но ему уже лучше, ему сильно повезло – все срослось нормально, и он счастлив».
    •• «А дочь?» – спрашиваю я, уже боясь продолжения. «А у дочери был жених Пол. Они два года встречались и были совершенно счастливы. Но мы католики, а родители Пола протестанты, и они были против их брака. Поэтому молодые расстались. Пол вскоре женился. Дочь долго переживала...». Я сижу молчу – ни жива ни мертва. Боюсь уже задавать вопросы: налицо семейная драма – два года встречались, расстались, слезы, девушка переживает... А Шэрон продолжает: «Но это было давно, полгода назад. С тех пор она познакомилась с другим парнем и очень счастлива».
    •• И тут я поняла: это не диагноз, это установка. Установка на то, что все вокруг хорошо, за исключением того, что скоро будет еще лучше. Некоторая доля неадекватности в таком восприятии жизни есть, конечно. Но по большому счету подобное отношение к жизни мне нравится больше, чем наше постоянное нытье и жалобы на жизнь.
    •• Все это рассуждение построено на неправильном понимании слова happy. В «Моем несистематическом словаре» о различии английского (американского прежде всего) happy и русского представления о счастье сказано очень кратко: «Скорее оно [happy] означает довольный». Хотел бы добавить, что русское представление о счастье интуитивно формулируется с большим завышением, ну просто поэма экстаза какая-то. Из-за таких завышенных требований – сдержанная, мягко говоря, оценка жизни (см. статью нормально «Моего несистематического словаря»).
    •• Конечно, у разных американцев разное представление о happiness, но в целом оно, пожалуй, «на полтона ниже», чем у нас. И самое главное – «градус счастья», по-видимому, разный у существительного (все-таки ближе к нашему) и прилагательного, которое употребляется рутинно.
    •• Вот пример из только что полученного официального письма:
    •• I would, of course, be happy to meet with <...> when an agreement is finalized.
    •• В переводе единственно правильный вариант – рутинное Я буду рад встретиться (интересно, что по-русски сослагательное наклонение, вроде бы соответствующее английскому would, не требуется, более того – нарушало бы узус и даже, по-моему, грамматическую норму).
    •• Похожие различия рассматриваются в работах выдающейся польской лингвистки Анны Вежбицкой (Anna Wierzbicka). Например, в книге Semantics, Culture, and Cognition: Universal Human Concepts in Culture-Specific Configurations разбираются такие «непереводимые» русские слова, как душа, судьба, жалость, тоска, пошлость и т.д. Интересен диахронический разбор cлова friend – эволюция значения данного слова в английском языке от «вертикального» (глубокая, эмоциональная дружба) к нынешнему «горизонтальному» (поверхностная дружба, знакомство, просто нахождение рядом – Your friend here). Со словом friendship этого не произошло, как не произошло в русском языке и со словом друг (или если и произошло, то в гораздо меньшей степени). Насколько я знаю, слово happy (с его «эквивалентами» в других языках) в ее работах не рассматривается.

  • 19 Cognitive Science

       The basic idea of cognitive science is that intelligent beings are semantic engines-in other words, automatic formal systems with interpretations under which they consistently make sense.... [P]eople and intelligent computers turn out to be merely different manifestations of the same underlying phenomenon. (Haugeland, 1981b, p. 31)
       2) Experimental Psychology, Theoretical Linguistics, and Computational Simulation of Cognitive Processes Are All Components of Cognitive Science
       I went away from the Symposium with a strong conviction, more intuitive than rational, that human experimental psychology, theoretical linguistics, and computer simulation of cognitive processes were all pieces of a larger whole, and that the future would see progressive elaboration and coordination of their shared concerns.... I have been working toward a cognitive science for about twenty years beginning before I knew what to call it. (G. A. Miller, 1979, p. 9)
        Cognitive Science studies the nature of cognition in human beings, other animals, and inanimate machines (if such a thing is possible). While computers are helpful within cognitive science, they are not essential to its being. A science of cognition could still be pursued even without these machines.
        Computer Science studies various kinds of problems and the use of computers to solve them, without concern for the means by which we humans might otherwise resolve them. There could be no computer science if there were no machines of this kind, because they are indispensable to its being. Artificial Intelligence is a special branch of computer science that investigates the extent to which the mental powers of human beings can be captured by means of machines.
       There could be cognitive science without artificial intelligence but there could be no artificial intelligence without cognitive science. One final caveat: In the case of an emerging new discipline such as cognitive science there is an almost irresistible temptation to identify the discipline itself (as a field of inquiry) with one of the theories that inspired it (such as the computational conception...). This, however, is a mistake. The field of inquiry (or "domain") stands to specific theories as questions stand to possible answers. The computational conception should properly be viewed as a research program in cognitive science, where "research programs" are answers that continue to attract followers. (Fetzer, 1996, pp. xvi-xvii)
       What is the nature of knowledge and how is this knowledge used? These questions lie at the core of both psychology and artificial intelligence.
       The psychologist who studies "knowledge systems" wants to know how concepts are structured in the human mind, how such concepts develop, and how they are used in understanding and behavior. The artificial intelligence researcher wants to know how to program a computer so that it can understand and interact with the outside world. The two orientations intersect when the psychologist and the computer scientist agree that the best way to approach the problem of building an intelligent machine is to emulate the human conceptual mechanisms that deal with language.... The name "cognitive science" has been used to refer to this convergence of interests in psychology and artificial intelligence....
       This working partnership in "cognitive science" does not mean that psychologists and computer scientists are developing a single comprehensive theory in which people are no different from machines. Psychology and artificial intelligence have many points of difference in methods and goals.... We simply want to work on an important area of overlapping interest, namely a theory of knowledge systems. As it turns out, this overlap is substantial. For both people and machines, each in their own way, there is a serious problem in common of making sense out of what they hear, see, or are told about the world. The conceptual apparatus necessary to perform even a partial feat of understanding is formidable and fascinating. (Schank & Abelson, 1977, pp. 1-2)
       Within the last dozen years a general change in scientific outlook has occurred, consonant with the point of view represented here. One can date the change roughly from 1956: in psychology, by the appearance of Bruner, Goodnow, and Austin's Study of Thinking and George Miller's "The Magical Number Seven"; in linguistics, by Noam Chomsky's "Three Models of Language"; and in computer science, by our own paper on the Logic Theory Machine. (Newell & Simon, 1972, p. 4)
