The Chinese Room is a philosophical thought experiment devised by John Searle in 1980 to challenge the idea that a machine can truly “understand” or possess consciousness simply because it behaves as if it does. Personalized responses and generative tools alter the very fabric of shared reality, fragmenting the cognitive commons that previous technologies largely left intact. We are in the early stages of what I have described as a great cognitive migration, a slow but profound shift away from traditional domains of human expertise and toward new terrain where intelligence is increasingly ambient, machine-augmented and organizationally centralized.
