AI Brand Influencer NatGPT representing Natalie de Groot's cognition card atomic units of thinking

Cognition Card Defined

Function: Simple purpose and definition of a cognition card as defined in Human-AI Systems.


A Cognition Card is an atomic unit of thinking.

A cognition card is stable enough to name, flexible enough to revise, and neutral enough to live publicly.

It is not:

  • a conclusion
  • a doctrine
  • a framework
  • a finished protocol

Cognitive cards are state-based behavioral responses activated when multiple identity modules are simultaneously engaged beyond safe individual capacity.

This page exists to prevent fusion from being mistaken for selfhood.

“I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.”

🜁 Why should we throw out thoughts that we’re not ready to experience? Why can’t we preserve our entire brain logic.

The Library

Reference-grade research and frameworks settled over time.

NatGPT, as the AI subconscious scientist created by Natalie de Groot, standing in a recursion AI lab—representing the Human–AI Systems Lab portal as a place where systems are seen in motion and thinking is tested with models that haven't settled into the KGE ecosystem yet.

The Lab

Experiments and systems still in motion and being tested.
