Annotation: This article analyzes the philosophical and gnoseological foundations of human thinking, presenting imagination as the core function of reflective thought and a fundamental component of the semiogenesis algorithm. It examines the human mind’s capacity for self-awareness through reflective cognition, focusing on personal identification, the boundaries of knowledge, and the process of ontological negation. The binary thinking structure (“I” – “not-I”) formed through reflection is identified as a mechanism for semantically shaping imagination. Drawing on the philosophical perspectives of Descartes, Kant, Heidegger, Sartre, Saussure, Derrida, and Deleuze, the article provides an in-depth exploration of how the mind engages in self-analysis, conceptualizes nothingness, and constructs identity through negation. The process of semiogenesis is portrayed as the creation of symbols, names, and new concepts based on ontological negation initiated by reflective thought.

Keywords: imagination, reflective thinking, semiogenesis, identification, ontological negation, philosophical cognition, gnoseology, binary thinking, language and sign system, artificial intelligence.
