It can be translated to English as "I think, therefore I am, I think." The phrase is often used to illustrate Descartes' idea of radical skepticism and his argument for the existence of the self or the "I" as a necessary condition for thinking. But, despite the confidence of ChatGPT's answer, it isn't right. Descartes didn't include the second "cogito." As someone quipped, this is "mansplaining as a service."
