AI and Multilingualism Q4: How Can an Outsider Learn to Read the “Architectural Blueprint” of Surviving Within Silence?

Surviving is a challenge. Survival is not a human right. Dying is definitely a human fate. In other words, we are challenged by this binary choice: human rights versus human fate; survival versus death. And then we are surrounded by graves in what becomes a human cemetery – a pet sematary? And our initial hypothesis being binary, we are trapped with no psychopomp out of it.

But there is a way out of this labyrinth in the form of an absolutely hermetically closed box. The first principle of Buddhism, anicca, everything changes, nothing is forever. Then if everything changes, if nothing is forever, then everything is transient, and everything is emerging from some transient form that existed before the emergence of something new – but is it really new?

New? My foot! Nothing disappears completely into nothing; nothing appears from nothing. Everything transforms, migrates, evolves, in one word changes. The question is then: what is the role of technology, Artificial Intelligence, Large Language Models, or even DeepSeek

 深度求索 , etc.?

And here we are anxious, meaning full of anxiety: LLMs homogenize the few languages they concern. All other languages have to be homogenized by translation into one LLM of one of the very few dominant languages: English, French, Spanish at the top. Statistically imperialistic, probabilistically colonialist.

But change is the very core of humanity. Look at what is new in the landscape, and check what was in this landscape before the change, and is still there, but at times the meaning has changed, the paradigmatic network has changed, the syntactic forest has changed. But all the past is still there, in the memory of the words, in the remembrance of the paradigmatic fishing nets, in the recollection of what was – and yet will be – in the future.

Change is time, and with time, change remains the same, even if the dressing or the chutney of every meal may be different. Nothing new under the sun. Only many things from long before but flavored differently. Viva la Muerte. Le Roi est mort ! Vive le Roi ! The Prime Minister resigned! Long live the King, and GMT forever!

There is always a Fish on a Bike that gets lost in transmigration from the global South to the Colonial North. Luckily, all that is going to burn in overheating air-conditioning. A-R versus A-I in Augmented Surreality.
