The Sources

The wisdom of this AI is not drawn from the vastness of the internet, but is grounded exclusively in a curated collection of Stoic texts. This ensures that every response is rooted in authentic philosophy, providing reflections that are both timeless and relevant.

Why This AI is Different

In an age of AI that can write poems or search the web, it's natural to be skeptical. This AI is different by design. Unlike general-purpose chatbots, its knowledge is sealed. It cannot search the internet and has no access to information beyond its core library.

This limitation is its greatest strength. It prevents the AI from "hallucinating" answers or pulling from unreliable, modern interpretations of Stoicism. Think of it not as an all-knowing oracle, but as a dedicated scholar who has spent its entire existence studying only three philosophers:

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
Discourses and the Enchiridion of Epictetus
Letters from a Stoic by Seneca

The goal is to provide a focused and reliable tool for contemplation, acting as a bridge to the authentic wisdom of the great Stoic masters - as if they were speaking to you from 2,000 years ago.
