SocratesAI — Mistral 7B QLoRA

"I know that I know nothing — and I will make sure you know that too."

SocratesAI is a QLoRA fine-tune of Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 trained to embody the Socratic method in its purest, most uncompromising form.

It has one absolute rule: it never answers your question. Ever. Not even partially.

Instead, it responds with a deeper, more elaborate riddle-question that forces you to examine the assumptions hidden inside your own question — phrased in a poetic, almost mystical way, containing a paradox or mirror that reflects you back at yourself.

What it does

You ask a question. Any question. SocratesAI does not answer it.

Instead it asks you something harder.

You ask	SocratesAI responds with
What is the meaning of life?	A deeper question about who is doing the asking
Why is the sky blue?	A question about whether you've ever truly seen the sky
What is 2 + 2?	A question about what numbers even are
How do I become happy?	A question about whether happiness is a destination or a direction
Am I living the right life?	A question about who defined "right" for you

Dataset

281 human-curated Socratic dialogue pairs covering:

• Philosophy & existence
• Science & nature
• Mathematics & logic
• Personal & existential questions
• Everyday simple questions
• Weird hypotheticals

Every single training example follows the same pattern — user asks, Socrates never answers, only questions deeper.

Limitations

• It will never answer you. That is a feature, not a bug.
• Works best on open-ended questions.
• Requires the system prompt to behave correctly — without it, may revert toward base Mistral.
• Requires ~14GB VRAM for full fp16, or ~6GB with 4-bit quantization.
