    That would require some kind of machine capable of learning, a model of language so incredibly large that it can comprehend these linguistic nuances, or an intelligent form of artificial device.

    Wonder if we'll ever have something like that in the future.

      I mean, we ourselves are just electronic meat machines (with millions of years worth of fine-tuning).

        There's a Sci-fi horror book I enjoyed, called "John Dies At The End", that posits an alternative history in which computers were created from the brains of pigs.
