Qu’est-ce que la philosophie? L’esthétique de l’existence et le rôle du sensible dans le devenir (de) soi. Ascèse et étho-poïétique chez Michel Foucault
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to answer the question: what is philosophy? To solve this question, we consider the theme of the aesthetics of existence and the role of the sensitive in becoming (of) self. We use as a basis for our reflections, the perspective of asceticism and etho-poietics of Michel Foucault. Our intention is to show that philosophy is done through the radical attitude of questioning. Following this path, philosophy will never be a set of ready-made truths, but truths to be constructed dialectically based on the logos of conceptual activity and not on the doxa of a purely rhetorical posture. The horizon is that of a theoretical practice that aims to break the perspective of speculative solitude and seek to get in touch with the world beyond its idealized form or the cynic view of rhetoric. In this way, the philosopher practices the art of living, thinking and speaking that leads him to change his way of being in the world, of knowing and acting with others. This practice makes the philosopher place his existence in the courage to seek the truth as the expression of finding the best possible way of life for himself and for others.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
