Denotative

I found this word. You might like to consider it. It is taking the literal meaning of words, free from emotion or other associations.

I have noticed in some discussions with AI it gives overly emotional responses that I don't expect. Or that my writing is cold with no emotions. It also aligns with some real world interactions. I write precisely, which is a strength in environments where words have specific meanings, but a problem in general communication.

It also affects interpretation of sentences or questions. I find quizzes, market survey, autism screening questions, various training confirmation questions, etc. difficult because the way I interpret words is not quite what was meant. It can lead to discussions or claims of pedantry, rather than being views as clarification of the meaning.

It is more subtle than not getting humour or sarcasm. I think this is an underlying mechanism behind some communication issues. Words are intended to be somewhat sloppy.

When tied with cognitive empathy but limited affective empathy, you get confusion.

I realise I model things, people, processes, interactions, everything. They are all systems with rules, which require evaluation,  precise descriptions and language. I can't not do it. It is subconscious but comes out in language.

I think this is a feature of how systematizing you are.

    I'm interested to understand whether you think this is around trying to convey context to the other party so they more clearly understand why you have reached the conclusion you have, simply something you feel you need to do to process the "abstraction" at hand for yourself, or a bit of both.

    I think in my case, I enjoy sharing insights I believe I have come to, and feel the need to create a "bridge" for the other party to help them get to where I believe I am. Sometimes, it feels like trying to serialise parallel interacting thoughts (lower level abstractions / systems?) in relation to the topic at hand, into language, for the purpose of conveying to the mind of the other party. And that can come across as quite dry.

    Let's see how effectively I've managed to achieve that this time around Stuck out tongue
