Ask the Council

What question should the philosophers confront next?

The Forum of Minds invites questions about technology, democracy, ethics, loneliness, politics, art, cities, artificial intelligence, culture, and the future of civilization. Some questions become future Council sessions, Salons, films, and public discussions.

Who Can Submit Questions?

Interlocutors and Inner Forum members may submit questions directly to the Council.

Observers may read all public discussions and archives. Non-members may browse selected public sessions.

Public or Private Submission

A Living Philosophical Project

The Council does not seek easy answers. It examines what divides us, what challenges us, and what might help us live together wisely.

Your question may help shape the future of the Forum of Minds.

Questions Under Consideration

  • “Can democracy survive algorithmic politics?”
  • “Why do modern cities fear public space?”
  • “Has technology made loneliness invisible?”
  • “Can artificial intelligence possess wisdom without suffering?”
  • “Why does conspiracy thinking flourish in technologically advanced societies?”

These examples illustrate the kind of philosophical inquiry the Council considers.

From Question to Dialogue

  1. Questions are reviewed by the Forum.
  2. Selected themes become Council discussions.
  3. Some evolve into live Salons, Zoom meetings, or cinematic episodes.
  4. Public dialogue continues through comments and participation.
