Meaning Is Everywhere
Language, Artificial Intelligence, Society
Meaning Is Everywhere sketches a theory of meaning from the ground up—with potentially profound consequences. In a sweeping narrative that arcs from the origins of meaning through the emergence of present-day science and technology, Prashant Parikh offers a fresh perspective on some of the most significant challenges and opportunities of the contemporary world, including the promise of AI, relief from scarcity and polarization, and the possibility of at least partial utopias.
A former Senior Research Scholar at Stanford University and the University of Pennsylvania, Prashant Parikh is a pioneer in the application of game theory to communication and meaning. He studied at MIT and Stanford University, and is the author of several influential books, including Language and Equilibrium (2010) and Communication and Content (2019).
