Dionysius the Areopagite speaks of the
“brilliant darkness” that one enters “through not seeing and not knowing.”
Gregory of Nyssa refers to this as the
“seeing that consists of not seeing.”
The real tension isn't AI vs. human.

Amma Syncletica said, "There are many who live in the mountains and behave as if they were in the town, and they are wasting their time.
