Hi,

The English had Aristoteles (*), the French had
Descartes, and the Dutch have their national
Flag. The culmination of the Enlighment was

the distinction between analytic and synthetic
truth. But this doesn't help to understand
Generative AI, which produces a mish mash

of the factual and the plausible. But the logical
and non-logical distinction lead to abominations
like ascribing to Wittgenstein the maxim,

"All logical differences are big differences", with
the even worse conjecture "All nonlogical differences
are small differences". But an early conceptual

prototype of ChatGPT was given by:

"Mirror (**) Mirror on the Wall who
is the Fairest of them All?"
- Snow White, Brothers Grim

So its all about retrieving mirror texts and images and
transforming them, the retrieval having good old metrics like
recall and precision, and the transformation having also metrics,

metrics all relative to a group preferences assumption of
the end-user, so that the end-user can more cost effictively
and more market penetratingly act, in a totally

new AI Boom infected environment.

Bye

(**)

An earlier version of "Mirrors" (Chapter 7) was written for a
volume in honor of Thomas A. Sebeok (He was among the
founders of biosemiotics, and coined the term "zoosemiotics"
in 1963 to describe the development of signals and signs by
non-human animal species) for his sixty-fifth birthday.
