I asked Grok, Twitter/X’s generative artificial intelligence chatbot what it thought about the IPS:
"The Infinite Plane Society is a philosophical movement that challenges traditional perspectives on media and human knowledge. It was founded on the rejection of the "epistemological inversion" of interpreting the world through the lens of the mass media filter. The society does not necessarily propose that the Earth is an infinite plane but rather emphasizes that the observable plane is all that we can perceive and that assuming a boundary for the sake of creating a model is illogical. It suggests that even if the Earth is a sphere, it will always appear flat to humans, and if one were to travel in a straight line, they would either circle back around a large enough sphere or find that there is more to the world than previously assumed. This perspective places the edge of human knowledge at the edge of space, challenging conventional notions about the universe's expansion from the Big Bang.
The society also criticizes the "Dome" proposition, which posits that the land we know is all there is, without attempting to answer what lies beyond this supposed dome. The Infinite Plane Society aims to break free from the negative effects of the news cycle, such as emotional dysregulation and the perpetuation of lies and propaganda, by understanding the distinction between the world as represented by the mass media and the reality of it.
The society is known for its live-streamed discussions and podcasts that delve into various topics, including the nature of reality, the media, and the flat Earth theory. It is often associated with the flat Earth movement, although its focus is broader and encompasses a critique of how information is disseminated and perceived." —https://twitter.com/i/grok?post_id=1775224349991006305
