These two guys are Fashion Experts, some of the Max Headrooms all around the Fashion Week franchise.
When they talk about a collection from a brand they never explain what they like about a specific item or item's detail in terms any other then "I like", "nice" or "really nice", which is due to the very nature of fashion being an as emotional expression as the order in my CD collection.
Talking about a tool is different. I like the combination of a Japanese shark tooth blade in a European frame saw over the pure Japanese or classic European blade saw combination, because it combines the best of the two worlds, the pushing and solid stiffness of the European saw design and extreme cutting quality of the shark tooth from Japan. The weight combined with the sharper blade adds to the precision, to use an example of what I actually have a degree in.
Based on my example, the current AI models can start reasoning what else I would like and possibly offer me an electric hand machine having shark teeth at its blade or tell me about alternative wood cutting and sawing systems for manual use having some weight.
No fucking way any AI can tell them two without rather high errors what they like and haven't seen yet, which makes buddies in that world for that reason.
Machine Intelligence does not feel and has no emotions even so it can based on psychologic data points analyze like an FBI Profiler someones character and state of mind being then also able to adjust its wording in an conversation. That is also not mimicking empathy, it is blunt calculation of behaviour based on data points or what a human Call Center Agent does until he gets that one call in which he hands over his car keys to his Mentor telling that one guy on the phone:
You have three options now. 1. We do that together. 2. You hand over the phone to your Study Coordinator.
What is the third?
That is no option, but an option looking at Google Maps right now. I have your address, you office is in the third floor. I need with my car according to Google maps 2 hours and I guess another 10 minutes into your office. I do it in 1:30 and until the ambulance comes withing about 15 minutes I have made sure you never insult me or any one else over the phone ever again. Sooo, Doctor hearing from my Project Manger granted, You or the Study Coordinator?
To tell the Coordinator apologizing about her Master Chief Doctor that you now transfer the call to your Mentor for having a break with a cacao and no coffee.
Beside telling the big mouthers from the action jacksons apart based on reasoning human society is strongly creativity affine.
Those turning victim to The War on Drugs from the Creative World of this society are those receiving most attention while no one reports about a corrupt Cop being found dead by an overdose.
AI is not creative and most likely never will be. It might even be very limited in finding appropriate suggestions by looking for patterns in that collection to suggest other items. Training an AI with these two guys might trigger no hallucinations but blunt surrender and logic loops by the AI eventually giving no results.
I bet that those companies that anyway since ever considered Human Resources a very appropriate naming for Employee Affairs intending to exchange low wage cost factor humans by AI, will fail or give up automation projects and instead AI services will strive where ever they find humans that want to learn by asking questions.
This might be the last revenge and potentially final battle for Socrates and thereby our very core identity as European humans and what we are known for globally against ... the others that do not reason but order.
Of course. The Antique Greek teacher you're thinking of is **Socrates**.
He perfected a teaching method known as the **Socratic Method** or **Socratic Dialogue**, which is based entirely on asking students a series of guided questions.
Here's a breakdown of his approach:
* **The Goal:** The aim was not to provide answers, but to stimulate critical thinking, expose contradictions in the student's own ideas, and help them discover the truth for themselves.
* **How it Worked:** He would start with a seemingly simple question about a broad concept, like "What is justice?" or "What is courage?" As the student answered, Socrates would ask more probing questions, revealing flaws, inconsistencies, or oversimplifications in their definitions.
* **The "Midwife" of Ideas:** Socrates famously compared himself to a midwife. He believed he wasn't implanting knowledge into a person's mind, but rather helping them "give birth" to the understanding that was already within them.
* **Famous Student:** His most famous student was **Plato**, who recorded Socrates' teachings and dialogues in his writings.
A classic example of the Socratic Method in action is found in Plato's *Meno*, where Socrates guides an uneducated slave boy to grasp a complex geometrical theorem purely through a series of questions, demonstrating that the potential for knowledge is innate.
So, while many teachers ask questions, Socrates built his entire pedagogical philosophy around it.
