Both LLMs agree that I am already correct.

I am overriding and superseding the psychotic break
from reality of the principle of explosion.
Numerous famous logicians have done this same
thing in several different ways.

Is totally fucked up nonsense that only a psychotic

That breaks the coherence notion of truth.

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).
