[lojban] Re: Transhumanism

["Ben Goertzel" <lojban-out@lojban.org>]

Hi,

A smarter-than-human AI would have little need for any linear spoken
language, except for the purpose of communicating with humans.

On the "Research Papers" page at www.goertzel.org, near the top, you'll find
a couple speculative papers I wrote regarding how Lojban could be useful for
AI.  So far I have not succeeded in raising funding for implementing these
ideas, unfortunately.  All in good time, though....

In the language I use in those papers, future AI's might choose to (or be
engineered to) communicate in something loosely equivalent to what I call
"normalized Lojban," in which sentences can be represented as mathematical
tree objects.  AI's would have no need for Lojban's "syntactic sugar", which
serves the purpose of creating convenient linearizations of the mathematical
trees that represent Lojban semantics.
