The definitive structural lesson of 2013 was that human cognitive concepts—whether words in Word2Vec or action strategies in DeepMind’s DQN—could be mapped into continuous mathematical vector spaces. By proving that deep networks could independently convert raw text or video game pixels into clean, geometrically logical coordinate maps, artificial intelligence transitioned from a system that merely recognized static shapes into an engine that understood the relational meaning of the world.
