The fact that creatures with radically different cognitive architectures could discover the same relativistic spatio-temporal relations suggests those relations are not artifacts of human forms of intuition.

artifacts of human forms of intuition(used in epistemology to discuss whether our perceptions reflect objective reality): Things that exist only because of how human brains naturally perceive the world—not reflecting reality itself, but rather how we're built to see it (like optical illusions).
cognitive architectures(used to describe different types of minds): The fundamental ways a mind is built and how it processes information—like how a human brain works differently from an alien brain or a computer.
forms of intuition(Kantian account of how synthetic a priori propositions achieve necessary truth): The cognitive structures of space and time that the mind imposes on representations, rather than deriving from things as they are in themselves.
relativistic spatio-temporal relations(used in physics and philosophy of science): The way space and time are connected and relative to each observer, as described by Einstein's theory of relativity—basically, how distance and time measurements can differ depending on where you are and how fast you're moving.
