in reply to Re*4: The (futile?) quest for an automatic paraphrase engine in thread The (futile?) quest for an automatic paraphrase engine
The *first* computer to learn a language will need formal training. It can then be the "adult" as other computers engage in a more participatory style of learning. It would be fun to see how the "human" English and the "computer" English (or some other "evolved" human language) diverge as generation after generation of computers are taught from the preceding generation. Will the computers develop their own slang?
