Glen provides a primer in natural and formal language discussing basic definitions of computation to prepare us for future conversations regarding AI in order to avoid confusion, particularly in advanced language model contexts.

Glen starts with an overview of finite state automata, illustrating its structure and practical applications, using a mechanical parking meter as an example. He defines language in terms of sequences of symbols recognized by systems and discusses the theory of computation, including Chomsky's Hierarchy of Languages. He goes on to show the relationship between music and formal grammar, the nature of context-free language, and the concept of physical computation through examples like square dancing. Glen also illustrates silicon chip design and integrated circuits, drawing parallels between technology and everyday systems.
Part II will cover agency's three requirements, look at the measurement problem and include a Q & A on the overlap between language and physical things like music, art and square dance.
