Re: Semantic / CogAI filesystem?

quick questions;

If LLMs are now defined as stuff like GPT / Transformer models,

What do you / w3c call older LLMs like; Babelnet, cyc, FrameNet, Framester,
Lemon, linguistlist, SUMO, WordNet, etc...

Also, is web 3.0 still web 3.0?  it seems to have been adopted in some way,
which kinda leaves open the opportunity to define internet 3.0 ;)

whilst the 'web 3.0' stuff isn't so important atm, the issue about 'large
language models;' vs. transformer models, or however the terminology should
now be categorised; which thereby also leads to various issues about how
the term 'ai' is defined, but starting small....

https://www.w3.org/TR/wordnet-rdf/  and all such things seemed to be fairly
big jobs.  Whilst I think they need to be updated to support
spatio-temporal notations, vector stuff, etc... (resources for logical
programming, Computational geometry, et.al. imho, ) It seems there's a
problem with being clear about terms and their meanings...

FWIW: Figure it's probably an important issue to raise in relation to W3C
activities generally.

cheers,
