Clinton's avoiding deposition

[durangodawood]

I suppose you could, as long as you don't mind basically admitting "I don't like quickly retrievable, cited information that my opponents can use in debates, because that challenges my ability to beat them in 'the court of public opinion' based on factoid memorization exercises and correcting their grammar"

...not to mention, just in terms of a personal preservation strategy, those who reject AI as a valid tool will likely be unemployed in a few years.

Its not so much the facts themselves as the capacity to frame them in your own words - which is a measure of whether youve vetted and understood them

Absent that, we may as well just have AIs fight it out here while we step back and watch tiktoks or take a nap.

Framing in ones own words and being able to articulate things in a certain "convincing" style are/were the bread & butter of the likes of Ben Shapiro, Steven Crowder, and the late Charlie Kirk.

I would presume that you'd agree that just because they all can "beat" a random 22 year old college liberal in a debate, that doesn't mean they actually have the right answer, correct?

AI levels that playing field. (Leveling the playing field is a liberal virtue, is it not?)

If I had to debate Ben Shapiro on the topic of the Gaza conflict in a public setting, strictly based on the facts that we both had committed to memory and could rattle off quickly, he'd own me. (A - Because he has something of an identic memory, and B - because he has more practice at public speaking in front of large crowds -- less nervous, able to project confidence, etc...)

If he and I had a text-based debate where I could leverage AI as a tool for retrieving valid, cited information, I can beat him, because on the Gaza conflict topic, the actual facts are on my side.

That should really be the goal of any debate that's substantive (and not purely performative), right? Finding the right answer.

Clinton is a pervert to me. But is he a child rapists is the question. As for Trump, he has a big list of sexual assaults. Even a teenager tried to justice. But was so badly harassed. That she dropped the charges.

I don't think Bill Clinton has assaulted anyone.

You should probably let go of that "anyone on my side can't be capable of bad things" mentality...and sooner rather than later if you want your political faction to have a future.

We're in the internet age and the social media age, where it's getting a lot harder for people in power to cover certain things up via weakly attempted plausible deniability ploys.

And I'm saying this as constructive criticism...you've been on here several times denying the contents of the Hunter Biden laptop (and even denying the laptop's existence) even after every publication (even left-leaning publications) had to bite the bullet and concede that it was legit.

If there's a lesson to be learned, it's this... you need to make peace with the idea that your criticisms of Trump aren't contingent on pretending that every Democrat is squeaky clean.

We can all bicker about "who's worse", but the reality is that powerful men prey on vulnerable women, it's been going on since I was born, and will still probably be going on after I'm dead.

Trying to pretend that members of one party have a monopoly on that abhorrent behavior is just absurd.

Sexually Harassed . I don't remember if he was accused of rape.

What? It's not "cited". AI "output" is filled with errors. If I wanted to debate a chat bot I would log on to one of those sites. (wherever it is they are)

lol. Anyway, we can hope the AI generated economic crash that is coming soon (bubbles will pop) doesn't hit too hard. Pray to your favorite god or chat bot.
