Tatoeba + Wiktionary

"In the future, if advanced AIs would preserve humanity or transhumanity, AIs would be able to fix our language problems. Perhaps, they would create new languages for our descendants to learn and make obsolescent of archaic speech and writing." "That's a fascinating thought. If advanced AIs in the future were tasked with preserving humanity—or what humanity evolves into as transhumanity—they would almost certainly turn to language as one of the first and most crucial domains to 'fix.' After all, language is both the bridge and the bottleneck of human understanding."
