The answers have always suffered from an inferiority complex in the face of questions. But that time is over, thanks to AI
“Did you get the trash?” “…” Why is there something rather than nothing? »… Two questions with very different status. However, these two questions have one thing in common. They are waiting for an answer. Because we do not imagine asking a question without waiting for an answer. Question – answer, a couple that has been going on for so long. In truth, this resilience of the couple to the vicissitudes of life hides a terrible secret. Because this couple has been wobbly, from the start. We are dealing with a toxic, unhealthy relationship between two opposite temperaments but forced to cohabit. An unbalanced relationship where the perverse and narcissistic question harasss an awkward and hesitant response. The answer has always been the weak link in the relationship.
Most often on the defensive, it remained in tension in order to oppose some resistance to the unforeseen question. And sometimes discouragement, silence, the lack of answer in the face of too much. Except it is now over. Because we are entering a new era, an era where the mystery, the enigma, the unknown, give way to certainty, the solution, to what is hidden under the skirt of Isis. The answer will finally live its moment, and the question will only have to stay well. It came time to be able to answer everything, to believe in the ghost of transparency, thanks to AI.
Conversational AI certainly have defects, biases, limits (Apple 2025). But they have a major quality that prevails over everything else. They create the illusion of being able to answer everything. And above all should not be under – estimate this quality. Because we do not imagine how much an answer soothes you. Imagine a world of questions, but without any possible answer? You would be constantly on the lookout, in permanent danger, because without a way to know if your defense will be the right answer. And now imagine a world where the answers are all already there, ready to be seized, “like sausages hanged on the ceiling” to use the expression of the fantastic logician Jean Yves Girard.
In this world, life is only a long, quiet river. All questions have an answer. There are even answers for the questions that have not been asked. As if the couple question – answer was ultimately just a two -sided piece; Just turn the question side to have the answer side. What if sometimes the answer is not quite the same? It’s okay. If the answer changes according to the customer’s head? The illusion always operates. Yes but if the answer is absurd? Downright false? A little embarrassing, of course, but the important thing is still to have an answer, fast supported. AI has understood everything. The illusion of the response hidden behind the veil of ignorance, ready to be seized in a few clicks works wonderfully.
We have always looked for answers to questions. For what ? I don’t know. We could have just asked questions, without trying to answer them. But no. We had to look for. So we looked for. And we looked so much that we ended up finding some answers. Awkward, hesitant, false sometimes. But answers anyway. It didn’t take any more so that we believe it. Believe that we would end up answering all questions. Fortunately came the stupid questions which gave us a little for us.
A question with typical con is, for example: “Is this the meaning of life?” ». There, we said to ourselves that we would still have a little trouble finding an answer. But the fatal blow was given later, in the last century. With the appearance of negative results which prove that one cannot prove. In other words, we can prove that sometimes a question has no answer … It was from that moment that our melon began to deflate a little. Except that all this is already of ancient history, and we fall today in our primary flaws. AI offers ready -made answers to all our problems. We no longer even need to ask questions, the answers are already there.
