| Abstract: | In this 'perpheral vision' article it is shown that tacit knowledge (hereafter as: tac-knw.) comes in two distinct types, with different causes and consequences: 1. 'somatic-limit' tac-knw. has to do with the human body and brain limitations with no consequences for encoding knowledge into machines, and 2. 'collective' tac-knw. is more 'ontological' than biological, having to do with its location in the social collectivity. Here the human body and brain's unique capacity gives it special access to the tac-knw. whereas known and foreseeable machines do not have this capacity. |
