X can come in different encodings
- a song as sound input, images of score sheet
- a poem as text, or images of the text
- a face as image or some other representation
- etc

As opposed to the technology side of AI, how much is the philosophical (but practical) side developed? What is good reading on the subject?
- kleer001 6y agoSounds like you're talking about semiotics. Or maybe something else. Please continue to refine your questions so someone else can understand and help you. You might want to talk to someone with your voice and their voice, better even face to face (as much as we can do that these days). Sounds like you really need someone else to help you think through this.
