I cannot provide a good answer for this. I do believe that Descartes’ Meditations are perhaps the most misinterpreted.

This is what people reference when they say: I think, therefore I am. I find that is not at all accurate to the writing. Really it says a thinking machine that can doubt can doubt away all things but doubting itself so then that ability must exist.
