Using Aethenics with AI

​

The Allegory feeds the Algorithm

​

Aethenics provides the Allegory — the symbols, iconographies, images, language and ideas that make up the framework.

​

Take its contents and use it as central input for an AI algorithm, such as ChatGPT, Perplexity or another AI system.

​

Design polymathic architectures of your Mind

​

The aim is not simply to ask AI for an answer. The aim is to see how the AI can break down the Allegory of your deepest perceptions, transforming them into iconographic explanations that you can use to design unique models as prototypes of your thinking.​

​

How to begin

​

1. Explore the content

Read and review any section of the website and choose an Index, symbol, image, phrase or idea that interests you – it is all a coded allegory.

​

2. Feed the content into AI

Copy the text or screenshot of the relevant content, inserting it into an AI search engine, making sure to include the corresponding title and description.

​

Example: Develop a visual prototype and include a detailed description 

​

3. Experiment with your instructions

You can ask the AI to:

• explain the symbolism

• break the idea into its components

• identify relationships or tensions

• challenge the interpretation

• create a visual prototype

• offer an alternative way of understanding it​

​

The website provides the symbolic material – Allegory (+) 

 

The AI provides the interpretation - Algorithm (-)

 

You provide the observation and meaning – Aethenics (±).

​

The Algorithm calculates.
The Allegory interprets.
The Human gives meaning.
