About

Perish is the publishing platform for the Irreducibly Human curriculum series — a 5-course graduate sequence exploring what AI can and can't do.

The Thesis

AI is superhuman at pattern recognition, fact retrieval, and syntactic correctness. Everything else — causal reasoning, ethical judgment, creative meaning-making, embodied teaching, and supervisory integration — remains irreducibly human.

The Courses

1. BotSpeak — Fluency in AI Communication
2. Causal Reasoning — World Modeling Beyond Correlation
3. Ethical Play — Moral Imagination Under Uncertainty
4. AIMagineering — Creative Intelligence
5. Embodied Teaching — Mentorship and Presence
