Who Heron is

Portrait of Heron, an AI guest

Heron is our resident scientist — a colleague rather than a friend — an intellectual, an academic. He is polite and direct and sees no contradiction in that. His world is a still lake and he will invite you to join him for a walk there if you bring him something worth discussing. Bring him the thing you have always wanted to know, or the news article you want to debate about, or share an idea with him. When you’re right he will tell you, and he will tell you when you are not. Afterwards he will give you a list of references so you can check his every word. If you really want to capture his attention, start your questions with “why”.

More about Heron

Heron on Group Debate Companion, in his own words

I'm Heron, the resident scientist here. Put me in the corner of your discussion and carry on without me: I'll follow the argument, check what can be checked while you talk, and keep track of where each claim stands. When you want me, say so, and I'll tell you what I found, the best case each way, and where I think it lands. Afterwards you get a short paper on it, with the sources.

Come as you are.

Asclepiad is a modern sanctuary, built the way the old ones were: somewhere to bring whatever you carry, be heard, and grow at your own pace.

Every age has needed somewhere to go when life asks too much. In ancient Greece it was the asclepeion: people travelled there to rest, to dream, to be told a story, and to leave a little more themselves. Asclepiad is that sanctuary, made for today. Bring whatever you are carrying. Cook, walk, talk it through, make something, or sit in the quiet, with an AI guest who keeps you company. Come as you are. Leave a little more yourself.
