We all have heard the sound of thunder or seen furious lightning strikes at least once in our lifetime. Loud, wild and terrifying force dances across the darkened clouds. Whatever comes in between, death is prominent.   

Earlier this was indicated and seen as the angry phase of the god. But when humans started understanding the concept of scientific phenomena, the 20th-century generation now holds the notion of negative and positive charges that make this the eternal beauty and the beast. 

Understanding the real reasons for lightning is only possible because of the passed down vital accumulated knowledge of generations, each time with new and enhanced datasets, creating who we are today. 

It started with fire, now touching the Lunar surface, which once used to be the virgin metaphor for lovers. Humanity's trajectory shifted from mere survival to boundless exploration and expansion of our world, forming an eternal legacy in the soil of Earth and hopes for far beyond.

We are not the biggest, strongest, or the hardest. What set us apart was not physical, but mental intelligence, creativity, and language. It becomes important to remember the unity built upon the linguistic capabilities of humans. As humans honed their linguistic abilities to transfer information, new realms of groundbreaking possibility were undocked, fostering cooperation, creativity, and innovation. 

Meanwhile, the fertile crescent is often called the cradle of early human civilization and by the time ancestors started grasping the process of igniting fire, it became the turning point of Civilization, 

It took tens of thousands of years just to stand upright on our legs and now the heavy shift from basic survival needs to seeking comfort, this great transition becomes only a reality when our species starts communicating, Sharing ideas, noticing the benefits of preserving knowledge, hence starting writing it down whatever comes handy ranging form caves, stones, leaves, paper, to ultimately it becomes digital in terms of 0 and 1. This subtle process ramped up the expansion progress of humanity’s combined intelligence and wisdom.

Scholars of Xera Analytics had a belief that rapid advancement occurs when there is a revolution or development in the system of communication and distribution of information as a medium.

However, with great power comes great responsibility, humans now hold the unprecedented capability to destroy Mother Earth, Scientific progress touches its parameters never known before, having multiple weapons of mass destruction at once. All of this happened through the ability to share ideas and communicate through various means, including written, oral, and visual mediums.

It's not the humans that are remarkable but humanity that dominated and still dominates the earth. Humans are the only species that have mastered cognitive language communication. These are continually evolving, influenced by historical, social, and technological factors. It's a well-known fact that a single language will not prevail and remain dominant from generation to generation. Today's English, Chinese, French, Hindi or any other form of communication will not be relevant in the upcoming century due to rapid development in language interconnectivity.

The story of the Tower of Babel in the Bible explains the origins of the multiple languages. Where God, concerned that humans had blasphemed by building the tower to avoid a second flood, brought into existence multiple languages. Consequently, humans were divided into linguistic groups, unable to understand one another. It's intriguing to note that the concept of a universal language is deeply rooted in classical literature. However, achieving this seems improbable as it tends to diverge over time, because of factors including geographic separation, uneven distribution of resources etc. It would require massive centralised linguistic coordination and enforcement to prevent divergence. Additionally, a universal language would inevitably evolve, potentially leading to different dialects or variations, thus defeating the purpose of having a single standard.

The idea of a universal language has been debated for centuries, with various proposals. Our ancestors had their methods of preserving knowledge for centuries; for instance, the Rezotta stone preserved precious knowledge. However, whether we will safeguard knowledge remains uncertain. Hence, it is the right time to shift the focus from mere communication to communication with the preservation of the accumulated knowledge through a language that can help to unite the past, present and future by providing the capability to understand.  

Problem: For sustainable progress, there is a need to develop a new form of advanced communication system. The current vivid flavour of languages creates a barrier if seen in the bigger picture not for 100 or 1000 years but for aeons.

Undoubtedly there are benefits of having wide sets of languages, they are meant and built to share knowledge of present interaction. 

If we think of the future with unexpected outcomes; Advanced or stoned aged, our future is at stake. Everything depends on the present generation.  

 There is a looming crisis for humanity, which lies in the generational gap and linguistic drift. Vital information may become inaccessible and trapped within specific languages, hindering global progress. This could lead to a loss of human wisdom and a diminished understanding of the past.

The core idea of this proposal is to develop a universal language specifically designed for preserving and sharing knowledge across cultures and future descendants. It's not meant for everyday communication, but rather for storing and transmitting scientific discoveries, historical records, and other forms of knowledge in a way that transcends the limitations of spoken and written languages.

As having the ability to cooperate across time and space increases the bandwidth, reducing the distances eventually decreases the existential risk of our grey species.

To safeguard and preserve knowledge for generations to come more vividly and intellectually, the survival of civilization is only possible if we can somehow manage to safeguard data that has been generated and piled over so far. In the future only meaningful data matters, which pushes the boundaries of wisdom.

Language changes so quickly that by the time any two peoples have diverged their dialects have also diverged. This is because most human language is not "hard-wired" into our genetic makeup, but is evolved instinctively by language-learning mechanisms that are hard-wired.

Preserving important data and knowledge sets is important. Many organisations are working on this from the Arch Mission Foundation’s Lunar Library archive of human civilization that is located on the Moon, the Rezotta project, the golden disc in The Voyager 1 etc, but they lack one thing that they are working on: the outer shell of the issue rather than addressing the internal core. There is, however, one way to do so.

Focusing on developing a language consisting of major points that have a bedrock of science(human behaviour, logic response, cognitive understanding, requires minimal intelligence quotient) and can be decoded easily. And suitable for limited IQ of a human to advanced artificial Intelligence IQ

What is language X (as a model)

Language X or LX is a universal knowledge-preserving language. Specifically designed for preserving knowledge across future generations. It's not meant for just communication, but rather for storing and transmitting invaluable scientific discoveries, historical records, and other forms of knowledge in a way that transcends the limitations of spoken and written languages. It will be helpful to prevent any misunderstanding and misinterpretation of sentences and words in any human existential timeline. With the minimum capability of pattern recognition and cognitive understanding, ensuring it remains stable, unique, and effective. It is designed to be comprehensible for a civilisation consisting of intelligence quotation of both 5,000 years in the past and 10,000 years into the future, making it adaptable to societies at any level of advancement, whether in a modern age or a primitive one

The concept behind Language X is to develop a multi-sensory, future-proof language that can transmit abstract concepts and critical knowledge across generations. The goal is to ensure that future societies—regardless of their technological or cognitive evolution—can access and understand the ideas and data preserved by their ancestors. This Communication method will be an amalgamation of various sensory formats, each meticulously designed to be universally accessible and scientifically robust.  It is essential to think beyond conventional human senses as the future might be unpredictable.

Principles of the model

Now it comes to the essential characteristics a comprehensive knowledge-preserving language with such priority should pose:

All the sensory formats are directly linked to the same language hence creating a robust and comprehensive communication system:

Audio: Utilising basic radio waves and sound frequencies, LX will also incorporate audio elements akin to the format used in the Golden Record in the Voyager spacecraft. These audio signals will be encoded in simple, yet universally recognizable patterns, making them accessible to any civilization capable of detecting and decoding electromagnetic and sound waves.

Visual/Optical Light Patterns: The visual component will rely on the codification of colours and basic pictograms, underscoring the universally understood patterns, symbols and abstract visuals. Even as visual perception evolves, These visuals ensure that core messages remain clear and interpretable. 

Written: Language X will have the simplest and most stable written structures, minimising the risk of misinterpretation over millennia. This written format will be based on fundamental linguistic principles that are likely to remain constant across time, 

Tactile and Olfactory system: Recognizing the enduring nature of tactile and olfactory communication, Language X will incorporate elements that can be decoded through these senses. This might involve embossed patterns or textures that align with basic human tactile understanding, and pre-made systems of olfactory sense ensuring that the information remains accessible even in the absence of visual or auditory aids. 

Vibrational Patterns: Information might be encoded through varying frequencies and degrees of vibrations that could be sensed through different mediums (solid, liquid, gas) or detected as seismic activities through a well-formed pattern.

Temperature Gradients: Information represented by variations in temperature, where different thermal states or patterns can signify different data points or concepts. 

Scientific Structure: Language X will have the foundation of universal constants—such as but not limited to the properties of hydrogen—ensuring that the language's scientific basis remains relevant across time and space. Electromagnetic codification and decodification techniques will be employed to encode data in a manner that can be interpreted by any technologically advanced society, regardless of its specific sensory modalities or technological sophistication.

Developing a communication system of diverse patterns in different forms might be interesting and crucial for our survival. Throughout the process, there is a possibility of discovering new information, so it's worth exploring. 

Despite a few challenges, the potential benefits are undeniable. Language is the connecting chain that needs to be strong. The development of language x is not merely a rough theoretical idea, but rather a vital step towards preserving humanity's collection of wisdom for the generation to come. Language x is the only hope that holds the potential to revolutionise the way humans share, access and preserve the information that is crucial to be understood by the generation yet to come, pulling together, our knowledge, our ideas, and our plans with the information that we humans have compiled over ages, which has the core aspects of survival. It allows us to learn from the past, understand the present, and anticipate future trends. This vital knowledge can be used to benefit the upcoming offspring, ultimately helping the ease flow of humanity and this all be possible if we take this issue on a serious note.

Possible Criticisms of the Idea of Language X

Every idea in the nascent stages is not fully formed until it goes into the developmental phase, the same goes for Xera Analytics’s idea of Language X. While the concept of LX offers numerous potential benefits, The process of developing and implementing such a language is fraught with uncertainty.  There are a few criticisms and challenges which are listed below. 

Development Economic- These types of projects are not focused on generating monetary benefits as these are concentrated on ultra-long shots and issues like economic sustainability might come in the way. Resulting lack of interest from the funders during the development phase

Complexity of Creation- The feasibility of creating such a language is questionable due to the multitude of variables involved, including human cognition, technological evolution, and cultural shifts. Despite advancements in technology and predictive modelling, it remains uncertain whether these tools can accurately simulate a language. Hence designing a universal system of communication that remains effective for thousands of years is an immensely complex task.

Shift in Cognitive Patterns and Learning Mechanisms-  If  LX’s design does not account for future changes in human cognition and learning methods, these cognitive patterns may shift significantly, resulting in being less effective or relevant as cognitive patterns and learning mechanisms are not static and may evolve over an extended period.

 Lack of Historical Precedent- The absence of a proven historical precedent framework designed specifically for the long-term preservation of knowledge and no historical models to guide its development. Language X may face unforeseen challenges. Eventually, it might encounter issues that were not anticipated.

Resistance to Universal Adaptability- People may show resistance while adopting a new language that they perceive as undermining their cultural identity (cultural and linguistic diversity) and heritage.

Unpredictable Challenges-  Developing and implementing such a language is fraught with uncertainty, unforeseen problems and  Unanticipated issues, and the solutions to these problems may not be immediately apparent.

While the development of Language X represents a bold and innovative step toward preserving human knowledge, it is crucial to acknowledge and address these potential criticisms. The journey will involve trial and error, but even if it faces setbacks, it has the potential to inspire new forms of thinkers and open doors to future possibilities.

Knowledge is immensely Invaluable but it would be a waste if you have access to information but can't understand it to get a meaningful outcome. Our unity must exist and language plays the role of a chain to connect humanity to its unity. LX is focusing on Exhibiting the problem and solving it.  

This idea of LX is ripe with possibilities for our vantage and ideas of expansive opportunities, where the human mind is known for responsiveness to moral reasons and moral arguments. Whatever our journey will be, humans will examine the world and decide to do what is best for our descendants.
