semiotic agents

Semiotic agents are entities—such as humans, machines, or systems—that interpret and generate signs and symbols to communicate and understand meaning. They process cues like language, images, or gestures to convey information, intentions, or emotions. Essentially, they participate in the continuous exchange of signs within a semiotic system, playing a role in creating shared understanding across contexts. These agents can be as simple as a person reading a map or as complex as an AI analyzing visual data, all functioning within frameworks that assign meaning to signs to facilitate effective communication.
