Advaita Inquiry Matrix (AIM): Structured Nondual Inquiry with Agentic AI
- adyashakti 8mo agoI’m building an experiment called Advaita Inquiry Matrix (AIM). AIM is an AI-assisted system that models the pedagogical method of Advaita Vedānta. Not a “guru bot,” not mystical content generation or scriptural imitation — but a rule-governed Socratic dialogue system that automates structured ontological inquiry as far as possible. The idea: • Use a YAML-tagged corpus (Upaniṣads, Śaṅkara, etc.) • Track a student’s conceptual state over time • Dynamically select passages and questions • Apply formal teaching methods (negation, identity statements, paradox, state analysis) • Use constrained Socratic dialogue to expose contradictions Advaita has a surprisingly rigorous epistemology. The teaching unfolds in a precise sequence. That makes it amenable to: • Semantic tagging • State-machine modeling • Concept graphs • Agent orchestration The human teacher remains curator and final authority. The system handles structured mediation between text and student. If you’re interested in AI-mediated pedagogy, knowledge representation, or formal dialogue systems, I’d welcome critique or collaboration. — Dev
