On creating the kind of AI that humans imagine
#12
Quote:And then there's the current propensity for people to use present tense when they should be using past.
I think someone in the language threads pointed out that losing tenses is a symptom of the evolution of the language. As English (somewhat ironically) becomes an international lingua franca, it is losing some of the more complex tenses.

Perhaps it will lose some of the irregular verbs and nouns as well.
