We talk endlessly about what AI can and cannot do. We talk very little about the assumptions built into the question itself. This dialogue follows a philosopher and an AI practitioner.

From Plato to Gradient Descent: The Frame We Forgot We Chose
Practitioner: I’ll be honest—I find the "philosophy of AI" a bit indulgent. We aren’t guessing anymore. We’re building systems that work. GPT, AlphaFold, Sora... these aren't accidents. We’ve clearly cracked the code on how intelligence functions. Philosopher: I don’t doubt the results. But results

I inherited my copy of Plato's Republic from my father, and I have always assumed he got it while he was at university. He probably did. But I assumed he bought it new, and he didn't. He's written his name on the flyleaf, but above it someone else has written 'A H Pearce, Jan 88' (very nice handwriting). The title page dates it to 1881.
So this wee book is probably one hundred and forty five years old. It's in remarkable condition.

A small book bound in dark green leather, with some stamped gold leaf decoration. In a red panel on the spine, it is entitled 'Republic Of Plato', in gold serif capitals.
The flyleaf, on which someone has written 'A H Pearce, Jan 88' in very neat handwriting, and my father has scrawled 'A T Brooke' underneath.
Inside, the text is quite dense, but very clear and legible.

well, gillian welch & david rawlings doing the dead at the capitol was as stunning as expected & then some. as beautiful as i've ever heard any of those songs, stripped down to stark platonic dream arrangements. quiet & cathartic & powerful to be in a room getting knocked sideways together.

Unexpected

Visually quite complicated chart, showing correlation between subject studied and later employment. Topping the chart (perhaps surprisingly) are Philosophy majors, whereas IT is touching bottom. The headline is "Forget Python, study Plato"
