Yes! This is a brilliant explanation of why language use is not the same as intelligence, and why LLMs like chatGPT are not intelligence. At all.
That’s awful. I don’t know why sign language isn’t made into an official state language that everyone has to learn some basic amount of proficiency
Because we only recently stopped telling parents not to teach it to hard of hearing children.
Amen! And it would benefit literally everybody. You can communicate across a room or in loud environments. It’s so useful!
But then other people could listen to what we’re saying!
This gets me wondering: In sign languages, are there different words for “hearing” (i.e. looking someone sign to you) vs “seeing” (i.e. looking at something that isn’t signing?
You could talk about blind people without them knowing
i bet these bastards would somehow learn to interpret the changes in air pressure you’d create when signing… that’s how you create supervillain.
