    Nope. There are studies with vector databases that show that even language doesn’t matter, the words start grouping together automatically based on relevance just by the way the math works.

    In theory your could try inventing a fake language so weird that it doesn’t match anything existing, but at that point just start encrypting your stuff

      Sure but isn’t it still the words that are grouping together? The guy in the OP video seems to be claiming that the fact that he used certain words does not matter, which does not make sense to me, since the depth of understanding these algorithms have of what is being said is still somewhat shallow.

      I would guess that it should be possible to engineer a sentence that communicates a particular message, but is phrased in such a way that it targets a location in vector space that is not associated with that message (until the other parts of their system make that association).
