ChatGPT role played dialogue between Marissa Meyers symbolic systems and a specialist in Lawvere Theories in Lean. She said " When we think about nations like PRC, the U.S., or historical Rome, we’re talking about entities that behave over time, processing inputs and producing outputs - like cognitive agents…" Common law court cases defined many such agents. Corporations, associations, bands, partnerships, The Reasonable Man ( who never made a mistake or sinned). It seems to me there’s a universe of symbolic systems and symbolic communications outside the knowledge of most AI developers. There’s a great deal of symbolism in literature under tyrants because criticism is forbidden and, since tyranny generally ruled during past 6,000 years, literature and art during that period was symbolic. What I don’t know, is how symbolic logic or neuro symbolic AI is being applied to law, history, politics but I can tell you it can be simple, powerful, actionable, accurate and fast, much faster than entire populations. It may be needed for Black Swans for example. Or, do you guys understand Wall Street lingo. Dead cats don’t bounce.
