  2. A quotation from Montaigne

    Deliberation, even about the slightest things, annoys me; and I feel my mind harder put to it to endure the various shocks and ups and downs of doubt and deliberation, than to settle down and accept any course whatever, after the die is cast. Few passions have troubled my sleep; but as for deliberations, the slightest one troubles it.
     
    [Le deliberer, voire és choses plus legeres, m’importune. Et sens mon esprit plus empesché à souffrir le bransle, & les secousses diverses du doute, & de la consultation, qu’à se rassoir & resoudre à quelque party que ce soit, apres que la chance est livree. Peu de passions m’ont troublé le sommeil ; mais des deliberations, la moindre me le trouble.]

    Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) French essayist
    Essays, Book 2, ch. 17 (2.17), “Of Presumption [De la Presomption]” (1578) [tr. Frame (1943)]

  10. A quotation from Montesquieu

    Extreme obedience assumes ignorance in the one who obeys; it assumes ignorance even in the one who commands; he does not have to deliberate, to doubt, or to reason; he has only to want.
     
    [L’extrême obéissance suppose de l’ignorance dans celui qui obéit; elle en suppose même dans celui qui commande: il n’a point à délibérer, à douter, ni à raisonner; il n’a qu’à vouloir.]

    Spirit of Laws [The Spirit of the Laws; De l’esprit des lois], Book 4, ch. 3 (4.3) (1748) [tr. Cohler/Miller/Stone (1989)]

  22. "There is another variant of AI hype that runs in the opposite direction, to the effect that AI systems can radically enhance democracy by replacing democratic deliberation and decision-making by the citizenry as a whole. On this view, the AI system would amass the relevant preferences of all citizens and then identify the option that enjoys the greatest overall level of support.

    This automated vision of democracy is deeply flawed on three grounds. Democracy is not about aggregating the preferences and values of citizens, but rather their considered judgments about the common good. Moreover, even if the AI system could identify these judgments, nothing ensures that they were formed through a process of deliberation, including informed debate among citizens situated as free and equal. Finally, democracy is not just a seminar-room discussion writ large, but a process of collective decision. This brings out the individual and collective agency, and corresponding accountability, that is an essential part of democratic decision-making.

    Still, not everything to be said about the relationship between AI and democracy falls into the category of hype. I will now try to substantiate this hypothesis by advancing five propositions:"

  23. Learning to Deliberate: Meta-policy Collaboration for Agentic LLMs

    A new paper introduces the Meta-Policy Deliberation Framework (MPDF), where LLM agents learn meta-cognitive actions – Persist, Refine, Concede – instead of following fixed protocols. Backed by a novel RL algorithm (SoftRankPO), this approach delivers 4–5% gains on reasoning benchmarks over state-of-the-art methods.
