Sobre este producto
- MIND, WORLD and WORDS exist in an intense triangular relationship. Consciousness is a complex modeling of external states mediating between sense and action. It has evolved to reach a peak in modern humans, whose intelligence and knowledge accumulation has been greatly assisted by the invention of language, and more recently, writing and printing. While our languages appear fully mature their potential ascent into higher abstraction has in fact been halted by technical barriers. German polymath GW Leibniz proposed a hyper-logical sub-language, an extension toward the dry rigor of mathematics, but he was unable to move forward. What Leibniz termed a Ratiocinator remains a challenging prospect three hundred years later, but the recent rise to prominence of AI opens up new possibilities and a new urgency. Any paradigm is a phantom presence, revealing its true character only when departed. Linguistics has languished under a Chomskyian paradigm for decades. Now the focus must switch from grammatical competence to more comprehensive abstraction and creativity. Is not knowledge the most fundamental pleasure? Join the author on his own long, colorful quest for that Leibnizian dream, and its vast potential in the modern world.
