Deep Discourse
Read full descriptionHide full description
Deep Discourse provides a new way to learn philosophy, directly from the words of history's great thinkers. While other AI-based philosophy chats may reproduce the voice of a philosopher, only Deep Discourse enforces that characters are grounded in the written words of the philosophers. Every statement by the characters is backed by citations from the great works of each philosopher, so you can verify them directly. Citations are clearly summarized so that you can see the Gist, Summary, or Original text at a glance. Deep Discourse also allows you to create group discussions between philosophers, so you can learn all sides of every topic. Useful as a study aid, a way to make the great works of philosophy accessible, or to help you find passages you partially recall but can't quite place - Deep Discourse provides the answers you are looking for while remaining faithful to the worldview each philosopher promoted in their life and writings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chinese Character Reader at none against Deep Discourse's 2. Deep Discourse's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
