If philosophy is as an endless debate, then you might be able to extract some “philosophy” from LLMs by studying their attractor states. This suggests a practical method for probing the philosophy of any system, or corpus. Though perhaps the fixed-point attractors, in particular, are more akin to dogma. In any case, there are some serious mathematical and computation tools that can be brought to bear on the problem.
