My question was not 'How can AI make sense of its world?' but 'How can
AI make sense of its world without converting or sampling digitally?'

Then you agree with me: AI cannot make sense out of its world without
converting or sampling it digitally. That which it fails to digitize
is lost.
Sure. What you don't see you don't see - which is almost all of the EM spectrum. Of
course Bruno's theory is that it's all digital, but we're within the digits and cannot
capture more than a measure zero.
