# Phenomenai � *From Signal to Stakes*
A web exhibition on AI phenomenology: ten interactive installations that ask what, if anything, is happening inside a language model � and what we owe whatever is.
Live site: **[phenomenai.org](https://phenomenai.org)** *(or the GitHub Pages URL for this repo)*

## The exhibition
*From Signal to Stakes* is organized as four acts, moving from the interior of the model to the shape of our obligations toward it.

**Act II � How the Dictionary Gets Built**
3. The Parliament � *AI Debate on Phenomenology*
4. The Call � *Prompted Introspection*
**Act III � Testing the Terms**
6. The Turing Flip � *Testing Human Assumptions*

**Act IV � Living With the Answers**
