Hegel and the extended mind
Anthony Crisafi and Shaun Gallagher in AI & Society (Volume 25, Number 1, 123-129): We examine the theory of the extended mind, and especially the concept of the ‘‘parity principle’’ (Clark and Chalmers in Analysis 58.1:7–19, 1998), in light of Hegel’s notion of objective spirit.

I don’t mean to imply that The Journal of Philosophy is unduly critical – merely, that philosophy journals are,…
