I've created an AI Chatbot for my Philosophy 12 class on @schoolai.com that pretends to be the Ghost of Jean-Jacques Rousseau.

I look forward to seeing how my students engage with it!

Careful with these. Theres lots of examples of these types of student / "historical actor" things going sideways in a bad way

I would definitely stray far, far away from sensitive topics. I figured a dead philosopher would be mostly innocuous. I also got ChatGPT to write the chatbot's prompt with very intentional constraints.

Good call. I assumed you did it with care. These tools are still very mysterious.

Speaking of which.. I'm going to DM you something you might enjoy / use with a philosophy class..

I'll talk about that Anne Frank example with my students as an introduction to the technology. I do want to instill a critical eye in them when it comes to AI tech.
