Tete’s philosophical influencer

Tete explains that everyone thinks of influencers as just people who get paid to advertise things on social media, and that they often get a lot of hate for it.

However, Tete acknowledges influencers as people who know things, and so he brings in a representative of his belief, in the form of Aurora Gude (an influencer known for winning season 6 of the Norwegian version of the reality show Paradise Hotel).

Tete claims that Aurora actually knows quite a bit about philosophy. To demonstrate her knowledge, Aurora quotes Descartes’ famous phrase “cogito, ergo sum” (“I think, therefore I am”), and breaks down its meaning: that people can doubt absolutely anything in existence, except for the fact that they can doubt.

Atle awards Tete second place.
