The compression of thought into a form suitable for communication realizes the abstraction of meaning: the extraction of stable, functionally significant invariants from an agent’s internal representations, which can be effectively transmitted, interpreted, and used by another agent to predict, coordinate, or jointly model the world.
Cinema is a medium for conveying the inner world of characters through close-ups, montage, color, light, sound and so on that transform a character’s subjective experience into something visible and audible. Cinema creates a unique language, more expressive than written or spoken language, through which a character’s internal representations become accessible to the viewer.
However, artistic value depends not on language, but on the inner world of the speaker; in this sense, art created by artificial intelligence will be distinguished only by its greater detail, which can reveal both the emptiness and the richness of another person’s soul.
I do not in the least diminish the expressive power of other languages, including the language of mathematical formulas and programming. I believe that in any language one must first learn to speak before attempting to say anything.
