Abstract

NLP has opened a new level for artificial intelligence: the truth. But AI text generators do not tell the truth reliably. That creates the contradiction of a truth-seeking authority saying something untrue. The paradigm of truth seems to be under attack. The threat of accepting AI as having the ability to speak truth pushes a model to a stereotype of truth that thwarts the possibility of becoming aware of further levels of truth. It will be asked what dynamics occur when we encounter the truth. From a phenomenological perspective, truth will be outlined as a dynamic experiencing-experience construct.
