Meaning of conocimiento prostético




furoya

conocimiento prostético
  18

I was thinking if the concept is understood by knowledge ("knowledge, accumulated culture") and prosthetic ("relative to the prosthesis"), and in principle yes, since it is a way of calling all support that allows us to save accessible information, without the need to retain it in our memory. But since the emergence of personal computers, mobile phones and their connection to world data networks, the term acquired another dimension, since the amount of knowledge that we can carry with us at all times can really be considered as a prosthesis of our memory, much more than a library, discotheque, film library, . . . and that is why today it has the specific meaning of "universally accessible data through computing".
