A picture is also an abstraction. If you take a picture of a tree, you have more details than the word "tree". What i think the parent is saying, is that all the information in a picture of a tree can be encoded in language, for example a description of a tree, using words. Both are abstractions but if you describe the tree well enough with text(and comprehend the description) it might have the same "value" as a picture(not for a human, but for a machine). Also, the size of the text describing the tree might be smaller than the picture.
- kryogen1c 2y ago> all the information in a picture of a tree can be encoded in language What words would you write that would as uniquely identify this tree from any other tree in the world, like a picture would? Now repeat for everything in the picture, like the time of day, weather, dirt on the ground, etc.
