The Role of Geometry in Language Learning
When you're immersed in a conceptual set, you end up tiling the way you experience everything. I think of more working out as regularization where in machine learning, there's a sense that you can simplify a model by constraining its weights to be within a certain regime. And just the generality of geometry is kind of stunning. You see just how many right angles are everywhere in the way that they recurse on themselves? Well, they have a bookshelf and every book on the bookshelf has right angles and the bookshe shelf has right angles. So I think of that, if you do sufficiently deep immersion into some set of ideas, you do just start associating
