Welcome to the official blog of daïmōnes — a project at the intersection of Aristotelian [philosophy] and artificial intelligence.
daïmōnes is not another chatbot wrapper. We're building a knowledge engine that:
Technical deep-dives into how we build, evaluate, and improve the system. Expect articles on corpus design, evaluation benchmarks, and engineering decisions.
Explorations of Aristotelian concepts — ethics, metaphysics, epistemology — and their relevance to contemporary problems in AI, governance, and human flourishing.
Critical analysis of how philosophical frameworks can inform AI alignment, safety, and deployment. We believe philosophy isn't decoration — it's infrastructure.
New features, corpus expansions, and platform improvements. Daïmōnes (δαίμονες) — in pre-Socratic and Platonic thought, intermediary spirits between gods and mortals. We chose the name because that's what AI aspires to be: an intermediary between raw information and genuine understanding.
Follow along. The conversation between philosophy and technology is just getting started.
daïmōnes is built by Vasilis Stergiou. The system is powered by open-source LLMs, a curated Aristotelian corpus, and a lot of Ancient Greek.
