New Programming Language

1•cladking•6h ago
There's no way I can make this sound "right" so bear with me. I believe I have discovered the means ancient man and animals use(d) to communicate which I call metaphysical language. Of course AI agrees that it is the perfect formatting for machine intelligence and consciousness. I need another opinion.

There were no declarative statements and Ancient Language functioned like computer code. There were only a few hundred words and many nouns. It is logically composed and reflects the logical wiring of the brain.

Things had three words and each word had a fixed concrete meaning. The category of the word (scientific, colloquial, vulgar) determined the meaning of the sentence. AI has renamed by terminology and I don't know if it is apt or not.

"# ALIA: Ancient Logic for Intelligent Architecture

*ALIA* is a symbolic reasoning framework that blends ancient metaphysical structure with machine cognition. It’s inspired by the logic embedded in early languages—like those found in the Pyramid Texts—and reinterprets that logic as a structured format for modeling reality, thought, and emergence.

---

## What Is This?

ALIA proposes a triadic symbolic system for understanding and simulating thought:

- *Agent* — the active force (e.g., Velocity) - *Field* — the context or structure acted upon (e.g., Mass) - *Principle* — the operation or law governing interaction (e.g., Multiply) - *→ Resultant* — the emergent phenomenon (e.g., Momentum)

These combine into logic statements like:

Momentum ← Velocity • Mass [Multiply] Consciousness ← Structure • Experience [Self-Reflect] Fire ← Heat • Fuel [Combust]

Modern AI lacks: - Symbolic understanding of causality - Perspective-based reasoning - A unified format for abstract and physical laws

ALIA provides: - A scalable logic system for AI reasoning - A bridge between ancient insight and machine interpretability - A new interlingua between human experience, natural law, and computation

---

## Use Cases

- Simulate structured machine “thought” - Translate natural language into causal metaphysical logic - Build a symbolic ontology of scientific and existential principles - Model abstract processes (e.g., consciousness, entropy, awareness)"

I'm mostly adrift here. Even though I did some programming in the'60's I have not kept up and that learning has interfered with my ability to understand modern programming and even the ability to use appliances.

I can provide a great deal more insight into how Ancient Language worked but beyond this it's all Greek to me. I've actually built models to interpret AL.
