That's going to be a good standard for a few years, until chatbots are too sophisticated for us to expect average adults to be sufficiently skeptical of their arguments.
- bluGill 2y agoI don't care about average - I care about below average adults. (and a lot of us are sometimes below average adults)
- gs17 2y agoA below average adult might not realize A Modest Proposal is satire. Should we ban it so they don't try to eat Irish kids?
- ryaniscool 2y agoI see two weaknesses in this argument. First, you're assigning eventual superpower-like intelligence to these AI bots. I see this a lot and I feel like it's rooted in speculation based on pop-culture sci-fi AI tropes. Second, restricting adult access to "dangerous ideas and information" is a slippery slope. The exercise of speech and press that the British considered to be treasonous preceded the American Revolution.
