习得表征可以在不转移产生该表征过程中所运用的能力的情况下，扩展系统的认知技能库。本文开发了一个框架来明确这种扩展及其限度。其核心贡献是一个五部分归因表，区分了有效追踪、习得结构的应用、从显式规范中习得、从识别性观察中习得以及保留与重用。每一项都确定了一个积极的能力承诺和一个需要额外支持的进一步主张。该论证有意承认有意义的内容、因果效能和富有成效的推理，因此其结论不依赖于将表征视为惰性编码。地图和类别示例表明，为什么即使完全的应用能力也留下习得能力的不确定性，以及为什么从其描述中习得一个标准不同于在示例中发现它。简短的正式证明出现在附录中。该框架被应用于安德鲁·吴对奥赛罗GPT的世界模型解释，以及当代机器概念论述中讨论的具体指标。它保留了已展示的识别、分类、推理和有条件的习得，同时明确了关于标准发现和积累方面仍未确立的内容。其结果涉及认知归因的范围，而非概念拥有的构成条件：认知成就应因其建立的能力而获得认可，而不应通过附加于其上的标签悄然引入更广泛的技能库。
英文摘要
An acquired representation can enlarge a system's cognitive repertoire without transferring the capacities exercised in producing that representation. This paper develops a framework for specifying that enlargement and its limits. Its central contribution is a five-part attribution table distinguishing effective tracking, application of acquired structures, acquisition from explicit specifications, acquisition from identifying observations, and retention and reuse. Each entry identifies a positive capacity commitment and a further claim requiring additional support. The argument deliberately grants meaningful content, causal efficacy, and productive inference, so that its conclusion does not depend on treating representations as inert encodings. Map and category examples show why even complete application competence leaves acquisition capacity undetermined, and why acquiring a criterion from its description differs from finding it in examples. Short formal proofs appear in an appendix. The framework is applied to Andrew Ng's world-model interpretation of Othello-GPT and to the specific indicators discussed in contemporary accounts of machine concepts. It preserves demonstrated recognition, classification, inference, and qualified acquisition while specifying what remains unestablished about criterion discovery and accumulation. The result concerns the scope of cognitive attribution rather than the constitutive conditions of concept possession: cognitive achievements deserve credit for the capacities they establish, without silently importing a broader repertoire through the labels attached to them.
