Millions of these stipulated relations in a knowledge hierarchy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontology_(information_science) comprise human knowledge expressed in language. Stipulated relations are like the Prolog Facts. Truth preserving operations are like the Prolog Rules. Anything unprovable by Facts and Rules in the system is untrue in the system. Self-contradictory expressions are rejected as not truth bearers instead of categorized as undecidable propositions. >> Empirically verified to be true in the current moment: >> I have a left hand right now, is sufficient. > > I can't verify that. > -- Copyright 2024 Olcott "Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see."
