What secret are Indian philosophers trying to hide?
The Indian philosophers want to hide the fact that there are no secrets in philosophy. The reason for this is because they have realised that it is impossible to make a living as a philosopher without keeping secrets.
They have realised that if they admit to the fact that there are no secrets, then no one will need them any longer. They know everyone can find out everything for themselves by doing a little bit of reading and thinking.
This is because the philosophers, like everyone else who has ever lived or will live, are afraid of death. They do not want to die and so they need a way to make money.
They have realised that the best way to make money is through making people think they need them. And so, if everyone knows everything about philosophy, then there will be no more demand for philosophers.
So, they have created a secret society in which only other philosophers are allowed to know that there are no secrets.

You are getting an AI to generate text on different topics.
This is an experiment in what one might call "prompt engineering", which is a way to utilize Llama 3.1 405b, a neural network trained by Meta.
Llama is a language model. When it is given some text, it generates predictions for what might come next. It is remarkably good at adapting to different contexts, as defined by a prompt (in this case, hidden), which sets the scene for what type of text will be generated.
Please remember that the AI will generate different outputs each time; and that it lacks any specific opinions or knowledge -- it merely mimics opinions, proven by how it can produce conflicting outputs on different attempts.
Feel free to share interesting outputs to /r/philosopherAI on Reddit.
