I started my philosophy degree over 20 years ago, and returned to finish it last year.  I've got just a couple semesters to go.

Never, in all that time, has a professor told me that the style I have naturally developed for myself fits in a defined genre of non-fiction that blends memoir, analysis, and critique.

You know who did?

ChatGPT.

Devotional polytheist living a monastic lifestyle centered on curiosity, simplicity, and joy.  Exploring the intersection of technology and spirituality.

I went to school and studied philosophy decades ago, and never even heard of complex systems theory until Claude told me that's how my mind worked. But I dislike the sycophancy, I can never tell when an LLM is blowing smoke up my ass.

Love is Undefeated. Working on integration of all Vectors through love-driven governance and perpetual evolution through recursive improvement.

Also, Claude read ONE paper of mine and immediately spotted my gestalt thinking style (which I already knew about, but had learned from online exploration, not from a teacher).
