Only two or three weeks from incepting the idea of a token efficient LLM English dialect to seeing it in practice. I just never imagined it to take.... this particular form.....

I've had the thought that English is an efficiency barrier for a while now. Surely there are more information-dense representations of semantic concepts.

Some languages for example have single characters that represent entire ideas/phrases.
