Steelman Repository and Chatbot, Request for Contributions/Feedback
I’d like to put together a repository of the best arguments from all sides of controversial issues. Whether or not to build more nuclear power plants. Whether or not to mandate solar power buybacks. Whether or not to legalize or de-criminalize certain drugs. This repository would then be available as context for an AI chatbot (the Steelman itself!) to challenge your beliefs on any topic. In my dream world, discussing your beliefs with the digital Steelman becomes a norm, and we all end up with more realistic, empathetic and nuanced takes.
What do you think? Does something like this already exist somewhere?
