23Windy1City33 · reddit · 2026-10-22
An indie developer behind The Agora: Learn Philosophy shares a design pivot: instead of simulating Aristotle or Nietzsche, the AI acts as a study partner that visibly distinguishes directly supported claims, interpretations, and extrapolations. The goal is making users realize what they don't understand and go read the primary text. The app is live on iOS and Android.
