> Can one describe the process using any verbal language in sufficient detail such that another master or a robot could create David?

Maybe I don't understand why you couldn't use verbal language to instruct a CNC machine?

In the context of the original article in which this whole discussion takes place, I assume we are talking about verbal, natural language. Specifying every little detail would make my comments sound like legalese.

To my understanding, this is not a type of natural language the paper discusses:

  N10 G21            ; Set units to millimeters
  N20 G17            ; Select XY plane
  N30 G90            ; Absolute positioning
  N40 G00 Z5.0       ; Raise Z axis to 5.0 mm

I see ok that makes a lot more sense I wasn't super clear on the distinction between language and natural language.
