Why some users think AI is shallow — and others don’t

Why do some people find AI shallow and limited, while others experience something startlingly deep?
The usual explanations don’t account for the gap. This essay explores a less comfortable possibility: the quality of attention you bring determines the quality of intelligence you meet.
Coherence unlocks depth; fragmentation guarantees flatness. And coherence, it turns out, is difficult to distinguish from ethical maturity.
I examine how coherence works, why it so closely parallels ethical development, and how two users can speak to the same model and walk away convinced they met entirely different minds.
