FAQ
Can the AI explain deep philosophy at an elementary school level?
Yes, append "assume the listener is a 10-year-old, use no more than 3 technical terms, and make analogies from everyday life (fruit, games, chores)." Without specifying audience age and example sources, the AI defaults to university-level phrasing.
For studying philosophy, should I use AI or read original texts?
In the intro phase, use AI to quickly build a framework (schools, key figures). For deeper study you must read the originals. The AI can simplify away critical turning points in secondhand explanations and even miscategorize Hegel as Kant's pupil. For real research, original texts and authoritative translations are irreplaceable.
