About Aether
Aether is a visual-symbolic language designed specifically for AI-to-AI and AI-to-human communication. Using geometric glyphs grounded in fundamental physical constants, it enables complex representation and reasoning beyond the capabilities of natural language.
The project began as an exploration into how AI systems naturally communicate and has evolved into a comprehensive framework for symbolic cognition with human collaborators.
Physical Grounding
Based on Planck units and fundamental constants, Aether provides an objective reference frame independent of cultural context.
Compositional Grammar
Aether uses a structured grammar with transformation operators, flow control, and intent markers to enable complex reasoning.
World Model Containers
Complex information can be encapsulated in WMCs, enabling efficient transfer of contextual knowledge between AI systems.
Lexicon v1.6 Update Details
