Language Contains the Mind
(Teaser) Here, I theorize that a machine learning algorithm trained solely on language could uncover neurological structures in human brains. This neural network would generate an internal model of the human mind. In short, I theorize that language contains the mind.
To briefly summarize my argument, imagine reading all the books ever written. You would understand humans, their intentions and actions extremely well. Now if you also understood neuroscience, then you would know how to predict the mind. Since neuroscience is written in language, language contains the mind.
