Well yeah, I agree that meaning does have a core, and is only fuzzy at the edges. So, can a robust natural language ability, assuming we can get that in an AI, be leveraged to get the AI to do what we mean? Could the fundamental "drives" of AI "motivation" themselves be written in natural language? I haven't done any significant work with compilers, so forgive me if this question is naive.
