I find this fascinating because many philosophers in the wake of Wittgenstein and Kripke's work on rule following still believe the contrary. I've always thought they're wrong if you take into account constraints of economy (and shared perception, pace Quine), and that e.g. Solomonoff Induction already shows that but I seem to belong to a minority in that respect. It's interesting to see similar ideas of convergence to a unified representation show up in machine learning by neural networks.
