Are We Letting AI Think for Us — or Teaching It to Think Like Us?
Not long ago, thinking was considered the last truly human frontier. Machines could calculate faster than us, store more information than us, and repeat tasks endlessly—but thinking? That was ours. Messy, emotional, biased, creative, flawed. Human.

Why the First Philosophers Still Matter.
When we think of philosophy, we usually think of its original founders as three great figures: Socrates, Plato and Aristotle - in that exact order. They were indeed major players, and without them the game wouldn’t be the same. Their combined influence shaped Western culture and determined much of the direction philosophy would take.

Talking to AI Taught Me More About My Own Mind Than Any Therapist

Essence, Embodiment, and Relational Reality
The Failure of Reduction and the Need for Synthesis There is a persistent failure in many modern attempts to explain what a human being is. Some frameworks reduce the person entirely to matter, insisting that identity, consciousness, morality, and meaning are nothing more than emergent properties of physical processes.

Resistance Is Not the Enemy
Iron sharpens iron. Brakes save lives. Friction preserves form. Modern culture treats resistance as failure. Anything that slows momentum is framed as obstruction, anything that introduces friction is assumed to be opposition, and anything that interrupts progress is labeled a setback.
