  What is the "nature" of the cognitive processes and contents of an artificial
neural network? In other words, how does an artificial intelligence
fundamentally "think," and in what form does its knowledge reside? The
psychology of artificial intelligence, as predicted by Asimov (1950), aims to
study this AI probing and explainability-sensitive matter. This study requires
a neuronal level of cognitive granularity, so as not to be limited solely to
the secondary macro-cognitive results (such as cognitive and cultural biases)
of synthetic neural cognition. A prerequisite for examining the latter is to
clarify some epistemological milestones regarding the cognitive status we can
attribute to its phenomenology.
