How does Wittgenstein's idea of meaning apply to AI?
My emphasis on language as a tool used within a context, as part of a 'form of life,' is highly relevant. Artificial intelligence might process symbols and follow rules, but true understanding, as I see it, involves engaging in language-games. The ability to use language meaningfully, to grasp its nuances and its role in action, requires more than just algorithmic manipulation; it requires embeddedness in human practices and shared understanding.
