Artificial intelligence is used on SOFIATOPIA as an instrument of inquiry, not as a substitute for consciousness, authorship, or philosophical judgment. Large language models process and reorganize information through material and computational architectures. Their linguistic fluency does not by itself establish subjective awareness, understanding, or a first-person point of view.

Within this website, AI assists in searching the corpus, comparing texts, reconstructing arguments, identifying inconsistencies, and generating provisional summaries or formulations. Its results remain fallible. They may omit distinctions, invent references, flatten arguments, or confuse the author’s position with material drawn from external sources.

Three specialized GPTs provide access to different parts of the SOFIATOPIA corpus : PhiloBook Inquirer for philosophy, BodhiBook Inquirer for the Buddhadharma, and Ma’at Inquirer for Ancient Egyptian studies.

They should be used as guides into the books and webpages, never as replacements for them.

Always verify quotations, references, and doctrinal claims against the original texts. AI answers are proposals for examination, not final authority.

How to Use These Tools Critically

AI can assist inquiry, but it does not replace reading, verification, or judgment.

Consult the sources

Use the answer as a guide into the relevant books and webpages. Important claims should be checked against the original text.

Verify quotations and references

AI may misquote, misattribute, or invent references. Always confirm quotations, page numbers, names, dates, and bibliographical details.

Distinguish source from synthesis

An answer may combine passages from the corpus with its own reconstruction. Ask which claims are directly supported by the texts and which are interpretative summaries.

Preserve conceptual distinctions

AI can flatten arguments or substitute familiar terminology for the author’s exact concepts. Pay attention to distinctions central to the work.

Treat every answer as provisional

AI output is a proposal for examination, correction, and further inquiry—not an authority and never the final word.
