Abstract: Artificial intelligence is understood as intelligent machines. At the beginning of the birth of the machine, it is the assistance and extension of the functions of human beings. Artificial intelligence will imitate human intelligence and participate in human life practice. There are different views from people of all walks of life on whether AI can match or even surpass human intelligence. Both human and machine will participate in the practice of life, and life practice cannot be separated from language, so human and machine are playing language games in life practice. In his language game theory, Wittgenstein argues that the meaning of language lies in its use, and language cannot be completely separated from human life activities. The basis on which language games can be played is a consistent life form. Therefore, what can be expected is a life form built by people and machines together, which is a new life form different from what we have today.

Key words: artificial intelligence; language games; wittgenstein; Turing test; life form
