What are the limits and possibilities of using Lojban for human-computer interaction?
For those who don't know, Lojban is a constructed language which was created and computer-tested to be 100% logical with no room for misinterpretation, but still (supposedly!) humanly enough to learn.
I like the idea if/when computers become intelligent in the sentient sense because one will be able to speak in English, software can translate English-Lojban and the computer will be able to translate Lojban to computer code. I was wondering if translation errors would still occur at human-Lojban stage and if they can be programmed out in time.
Also, will lojban-human print-outs read in lojban grammatical form or would it be possible to program another translation, if you will, into human grammar?
I think that it would be more accurate and easier if the human interpreted the lojban-form translation because humans have that edge when it comes to coming to conclusions with a lack of data, whilst computers can only deal with absolutes, 1s and 0s.
By the way, if you want a mind-fuck and to test your intelligence while simultaneously getting yourself the edge in tomorrow's world of computing, give lojban a try. I tried it and failed but I was only 15 then so I'll try again some time soon (yes, I'm a geek. problem?). It's actually not as difficult as I once found it.
P.S. I hope u liek my pwetty pictures.
