From google AI, take with a grain of suspicion
"Relying on AI for discussions undermines the core purpose of discourse: building mutual understanding, challenging assumptions, and developing critical thought. When you outsource a discussion to an algorithm, you lose the genuine human connection and the cognitive work required to form your own perspectives.
Absence of True Understanding: AI tools generate plausible-sounding responses but lack personal experience, authentic emotions, or a genuine stake in the topic. You get simulated empathy rather than real, human connection.
Lack of Critical Pushback: An AI is designed to serve and often avoids disagreeing with you. Unlike a human partner, it rarely challenges your flawed premises or tests your assumptions.
Outsourced Critical Thinking: The friction of a difficult conversation is what helps shape your own judgments and moral identity. Relying on an algorithm robs you of the opportunity to develop these skills yourself.
Superficial Engagement: In group settings, relying on AI to generate replies can lead to uninspired, box-checking conversations that fail to build community or deepen understanding.
If you are looking to prepare for a discussion or find angles you might have missed, I can certainly help you brainstorm. Would you like to share the topic of your discussion so we can brainstorm some thought-provoking questions or potential counter-arguments you might encounter?"
Yup, I went there.
