Of course there's not really enough info in this article to really tell what he's talking about. A Guardian article from May [1] has a bit more about what he is meant by "meaning space": > Hinton said that the idea that language can be deconstructed with almost mathematical precision is surprising, but true. “If you take the vector for Paris and subtract the vector for France and add Italy, you get Rome,” he said. “It’s quite remarkable.” ... which makes it sounds like this builds off of the "word2vec" [2,3] work that came out in 2013. But there must be something else new (maybe at the sentence level?) to get from there to logic and natural conversation.
