    It seems nothing can counteract the proliferation of this Artificial Intelligence based on the zero degree of thought.Nothing, that is, except this reversibility of intelligence and stupidity - the latter representing a renewed challenge to victorious intelligence.There is something here too like a revenge of evil.Something to which the tyranny of reality leads equally well - to appreciating any old form of madness and illusion.

    Philosophy has never been anything but a disavowal of the reality principle. Up until now, it has been the business of philosophers. Today this unreality has entered into things. This then is the end of philosophy and the beginning of something else in which reality merges with its ironic refraction.

    As flat as the earth before they noticed it was round. As ambiguous as the truth before they noticed it was true. As real as reality before they noticed it didn't exist. As beautiful as a woman before they noticed she wasn't one. And is the earth really round? It is when seen from another world. Just as the real is real only from our phenomenal point of view. Or, rather, from the viewpoint of the unverifiable hypothesis of its non- existence.

    No difference between reality and the superstitious faith in reality. Preserving the real and preserving phenomena are leitmotivs of contemporary imbecility. Appearances, for their part, are always preserved.
