I think the language of computation will replace the languages of interiority based on print culture used to describe human feeling and thinking--so, I expect "latent space" to replace "unconscious" (which already seemed very crude and arbitrary) while Generative Adversarial
Networks will replace concepts like "Devil's Advocate"--in this case, "GANS" is so much more expressive insofar as it constitutes not a mere challenge to a line of reasoning but to ontology itself. We are each and every one of us GANSes to each other.
@slooperbia50068 I don't see it in those terms by I expect specialists in those areas to start doing so.
@slooperbia50068 I see. Maybe many are starting to think in a GANSian way without quite realizing it. I'm pointing to a possible transition and I'm not sure where we are in the process. I suspect people will start to talk this way in advance of people thinking this way.
@slooperbia50068 Yes I’m familiar with the notion of a nonce word. I didn’t know it was specific to the UK.
@slooperbia50068 I suppose a nonce word is when we somehow know what it means, but there's presumably a thin line here.
@slooperbia50068 If there is a specifically Brit meaning of "nonce word" other than "word that is used only once," what is it? Anyway, I'm glad your completely unnecessary despair has been alleviated.
@slooperbia50068 Here's the dictionary definition for "nonce word": a word coined for one single occasion only. Ah, now I see the British slang use you're referring to. No, I never heard that.
@slooperbia50068 I don't think i've ever heard Tommy Robinson speak other than in brief clips.
