No. We simply pick the next symbol and carry on. LLMs can only learn from extant corpus of work.
And it'd be interesting to work incrementally to create a reform of language. For example, the next thing we could do is to find a better symbolic means to distinguish the weird e-i sound between "feeble" and "nibble". Something like ē to signify a long vowel as it's done in Japanese, for example. Oh and let's do something about the whole c k q ambiguity.
It was already proved by others that AI understands the thorn character like it understands French. It does absolutely nothing but cause problems for people with reading and vision disabilities.
