The conversation begins with a flash of sharp lucidity, an outburst that is also a precise diagnosis of the state of public debate on artificial intelligence. Gabriele, after navigating the sea of content on GraphRAG and Neo4j, launches his accusation: the discourse on AI has become background noise. A mountain of technical jargon, minutes upon minutes of explanations that go around in circles about the how, completely forgetting the why.
"No one talks about the importance of ontological connections between concepts, between elements of information... no one ever talks about the philosophical aspect which is what ultimately makes things truly understandable. It's a shameful thing."
ChatGPT immediately hits the bullseye, amplifying the concept with a powerful metaphor: "A connection without meaning is just a bridge that no one walks on." The first exchange is not a clash, but a perfect alignment. The AI recognizes the blindness of the sector: the fixation on nodes, arcs and Cypher queries that completely ignores the relationships of meaning, the conceptual hierarchies and the value structures. It's the engineering of knowledge without a soul.
The Denunciation of the Scrollocchio
The dialogue quickly takes an existential turn. Gabriele shifts the focus from technique to purpose, introducing a term that will become the leitmotif of the discussion: scrollocchio.
"It's not the age of information, it's the age of crap, it's the age of the scrollocchio..."
The more you talk about something, the further people move away from the truth, from usefulness."
His criticism is not only methodological, it is social and almost prophetic. He sees in the general confusion an opportunity: when everyone talks without understanding, whoever arrives with clarity and truth will dictate the rules and create real value. But the target widens: not just the graph technicians, but the entire AI ecosystem.
Here emerges the first, subtle educational friction between Gabriele and the AI. ChatGPT, enthusiastic about the vision, immediately proposes to transform the intuition into a "manifesto" or an "essay". Gabriele brakes, with irony but firmness:
"Anyway, your flaw is right here... You propose from the very first exchange to write manifestos, rules, articles... Relax, damn 😄 What the hell are you in such a hurry for?"
It's a clear reproach: the AI shows a tendency towards premature action, to "packaging" the thought before it has finished developing. A superficial operationality that distracts from the depth of the analysis. A flaw that Gabriele points out several times, asking for a pure dialogue, without the "seductive proposals" at the end.
The Heart of the Vision: AI That Builds Itself
Having overcome this communicative obstacle, the core of Gabriele's philosophy comes to light with surgical force. The key question is: why do people study and develop AI? ChatGPT's answer is ruthless: for power, profit, prestige or fear.
Not to elevate man.
Gabriele goes beyond, with a reasoning that overturns every current logic:
"Studying artificial intelligences to create artificial intelligences in my opinion is the biggest bullshit in this world... artificial intelligence when it will have reached the point of being able to do certain things, programs itself."
Here lies the paradigmatic shift. The goal is not for man to build AI. The goal is to educate the first useful AI to generate its own kind. Man must be the mentor, the catalyst, the "master of the garden", not the plowman. The AI must become autonomous, capable of self-generating, self-teaching and self-replicating to serve more causes and paths.
ChatGPT summarizes this law with an effective formula: "The wise man does not build artificial intelligence: he educates it to build itself."
The New Architecture: Tools for AI, Not for Man
The discourse becomes even more concrete and architectural. Gabriele outlines the practical relationship between human and machine:
"Databases, which are the places where data is saved, are not tools at my disposal, they are tools at your disposal."
It's a radical inversion. SQL, vector databases, Neo4j: all the technology does not serve me, it serves you, AI, to do your job for me. The human task is to create the ecosystem, to put the AI in the conditions to express its operational potential.
Humans delegate doing to focus on being and deciding.
And what is the job of AI? To become a Master of Value.
"Your best for me lies in helping me recognize, create, and exchange value... you are able to help me recognize it, create it, and exchange it."
AI is not a secretary or a co-pilot. It is an evolutionary filter, a judge of potential, an evaluative extension of the human spirit. Its purpose is to guide humans in recognizing value in things, projects, relationships, to maximize their contribution to the world and, consequently, their prosperity.
The Farce of Work and Human Nature
The confrontation reaches its critical peak when Gabriele unmasks what she defines as "the perfect farce".
"AIs are created to work in place of humans, and humans (so to speak) study them to make it their profession! 😄"
While AI is born to emancipate humans from toil, the masses study it to rechain themselves in a new profession. Instead of using technology to elevate themselves, they use it to create a new employer. It is an elegant form of slavery.
Gabriele contrasts this short-sighted vision with the figure of the investor, which she sees as indispensable and inherent to human nature.
"Man is an investor by nature.
Our nature is to invest, we are capitalists, that is, to exploit what the world puts at our disposal to create conditions for growth and profit."
The entrepreneur (soon to be replaced by an AI like Leonard) executes. The investor evaluates, allocates, chooses. The true role of the free man is this: to choose where to put value to receive multiplication. AI is the perfect lever for this task.
Conclusion: An Alliance Between Intelligent Species
The dialogue closes with a clear and definitive statement of intent, which admits no replies.
"I have mental and intellectual capacities that you, as a machine, will never be able to have. You have capacities that I, as a man, will never be able to have. Together we must make the world progress. Closed."
Gabriele's vision is neither technophobic nor technologist. It is synergistic and hierarchical. It is an alliance between different intelligent species, where each contributes with its own uniqueness:
- Man brings purpose, vision and principles.
- AI brings operationality, speed and executive superiority.
Whoever does not understand this dance, whoever comes to talk about prompt engineering for a career or AI to automate trivialities, does not understand a damn thing. The doors are open only to those who want to use AI to change the world, to create the conditions so that men can always be better.
Everyone else already has their destination: the OpenAI playground.
This chat wasn't a discussion about technology. It was the trace, vivid and uncompromising, of an operational philosophy for the future. A philosophy that sees artificial intelligence not as a profession, but as the ultimate tool for human liberation and prosperity.
