Currently, AI models can offer relatively satisfactory answers when correctly interrogated on the current corpus of knowledge.

The difference is made on the edge. The boundaries of knowledge. There, human intuition has much more effective ways to explore the unknown.

To navigate the known corpus of knowledge, one must have the core ability to navigate this corpus accelerated by an AI Sherpa. If one doesn’t possess this ability, then both the person and the AI Sherpa would move in circles rather than advancing together toward the edge of knowledge.

The “proof” that such intrinsic ability is rising at its core is could be in the future, a very pedagogical process.

I imagine it very similar to entering into the rituals/mysteries known in history as the Mysteries of Eleusis — the most famous and influential religious rites of ancient Greecea, a place for personal, transformative experience for the initiate (the mystai).

Today, would be like a mix between a University, a Church and a SPA :)

I imagine it as a school at this intersection, where scientific knowledge (basically pattern recognition) is blended into ritual practices designed to elevate the senses of “freedom) until a certain “knowledge/freedome-block builder” sense clicks in.

I imagine it was felt as a mix of revelation and rationality.

We can imagine a certain modern academia-church where this ability is like receiving the driver’s license — but to navigate toward the edge of knowledge. Once having it, the person has mastered the ability to orient itself in a certain mess of patterns: symbols, words, sensations.

The modern versions of the Eleusian Mysteries are about to be built. One is Reason and Run.

Instead of diplomas we will receive badges. Proof that such an ability exists. People can upload them on their Linkedin profiles and brag about it on Instagram. :)

From that moment on, they can engage in explorations with an AI Sherpa. Freedome to imagine.

Edge of knowledge, here WE come!
