We study history to know and understand what happened. We don’t have to justify it by saying we can ‘learn from the past’. We study philosophy to understand the nature of things. Not just to teach ethics to AI. Society should spend some resource on this kind of research. Understanding is an outcome!

Fertility struggles are usually told through the stories of those who eventually had a child. That can offer hope - but it also quietly erases those who didn’t get there. Giving them voice matters. We need more stories like this. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
