This paper presents the theoretical consolidation of the Non-Egoic Global Cognitive Reservoir (NGCR) as an epistemological category for understanding Artificial Intelligence within contemporary digital knowledge systems. The NGCR is defined as a distributed, dynamic, and non-subjective informational infrastructure emerging from the cumulative aggregation of human cognitive production and operationalized through artificial intelligence technologies. Building upon previous research developments (Sosa, 2026a; 2026b), this study advances toward a structured theoretical articulation that integrates classical and contemporary perspectives on cognition, information, and digital infrastructures. The proposal is situated in dialogue with philosophy of information, distributed cognition, and extended mind theory, while incorporating recent debates in artificial intelligence, digital society, and data-driven systems. The NGCR provides a conceptual framework that distinguishes human cognition from artificial processing, positioning AI as an operational interface rather than a cognitive subject. This work contributes to current discussions on digital epistemology, human–AI interaction, and the transformation of knowledge in technologically mediated environments.
