Zusammenfassung
This paper examines issues on Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence
(AI),
Cognitive Science and Mental Models. The paper provides a philosophical
grounding
for the researchers in Personal Information Management (PIM). An overview
is given on
various philosophical aspects of computer-based activities. Discussions
on the theories
relevant to understand the goals for the Semantic Desktop community
are elicited.
Philosophical theories are not immediately transparent to the programmers,
but the
ideas discussed here are intended to emphasize a theoretical foundation,
with respect to
Semantic Desktop long term goals. The goal of this paper is to examine
the theories of
Philosophy and to provide a conceptual idea to design user-intuitive
Semantic Desktops.
The paper tries to induce scientific curiosity among the Semantic
Desktop researchers
as well as to develop the future Semantic Desktops to realize Weak
AI.
