It's the age of AI, words don't mean anything anymore. They only point to other words. The word "solve" may have a "definition" but that's irrelevant compared to how the word makes me feel.

    That's literally always been true. Humans are emotional speakers and use language that feels right more than we use language that factually accurate.
