## Resource

This text explores how the philosophical insights of Albert Camus can be applied to the modern challenge of artificial intelligence. The author argues that the primary danger of AI is not its potential for error, but its convenience, which encourages humans to abandon their own critical judgment. By drawing on Camus’s work regarding human dignity and the tendency of systems to reduce people to mere abstractions, the source introduces a practical discipline called the Context & Critique Rule. This framework requires users to investigate the origins of machine-generated answers and interrogate their assumptions before accepting them. Ultimately, the sources suggest that maintaining human agency and active thought is essential to preventing our disappearance within the automated systems we create. Read the article. About the Author - Greg Twemlow writes and teaches at the intersection of technology, education, and human judgment. He works with educators and businesses to make AI explainable and assessable in classrooms and boardrooms — to ensure AI users show their process and own their decisions. His cognition protocol, the Context & Critique Rule™, is built on a three-step process: Evidence → Cognition → Discernment — a bridge from what’s scattered to what’s chosen. Context & Critique → Accountable AI™. © 2025 Greg Twemlow. “Context & Critique → Accountable AI” and “Context & Critique Rule” are unregistered trademarks (™).
