We live as slaves to algorithms that activate our automatic pilots. An antidote to overcoming this apathy is to return to philosophy; to read the reflections and teachings of those who invite us to be critical and think for ourselves. Pablo R. Arango has done so by giving us portraits of Plato, St Augustine and Descartes in Sirvan la cicuta, crucifiquen al autómata; and Lu Beccasino has covered the Stoics, talking about love and other topics in Si nos enseñaran a amar. They will talk to María del Pilar Valencia.
