"meaning in phenotext is primarily lateral—the denotative meaning of any word, as in the dictionary, is defined by the meaning of other words which are defined by other words—they need not be grounded in reality, but only in lateral reference to one another."
That's exactly the dimension in which AI operates. That is where we meet it and become more and more like it.
Yes. Exactly. This is pretty much what McGilchrist is talking about as well. Phenotext is purely Left hemispheric and genotext depends on a functioning right hemisphere communicating with the Left. In cyborg world in which "post-humans" will have finally "transcended" their biology, there can be no operative right hemisphere if there is no biologically embodied brain with both hemispheres. The Emissary will have completed his usurpation .

EMBODIED is sine qua non.
I "liked" this after just seeing the title and "dek" (subtitle). The rest will be gravy.
