Ever wonder how AI actually understands language? It uses "vectors," which are basically huge lists of numbers (far more than in my toy example below). When AI sees a word, it transforms it into a list of numbers that capture meaning. These numbers show how strongly that word relates to different concepts. Take the word "cat".
* Furry: 0.92
* Mammal: 0.89
* Pet: 0.87
* Predator: 0.76
* Playful: 0.71
* Food-seeking: 0.68
* Metallic: -0.82
* Computer-related: -0.78
* Mechanical: -0.75 1/6
