  • Yes and your comment utilised that rhetorical technique. Gish gallop describes how arguments are structured and delivered, not the medium they appear in.

    A) Nobody said the environmental costs were fake; the point is that “costly and harmful” does not by itself prove “nobody should use it”

    B) “Regulate harmful data centers” is a policy position, not an argument that every use of an LLM is unethical; if the problem is siting, noise, emissions, and water stress, the target is those failures, not the existence of the tool in every context.

    C) AI has already contributed to genuine new findings, whether you want to admit it or not.

    D) People will pay more for better products, if the work was substandard there would be plenty of opportunity elsewhere in companies that position themselves as ‘slop-free’

    E) Your evidence does not justify “long-term use impairs cognitive abilities”: one widely cited paper is still an arXiv preprint on essay-writing with 54 participants, another is an opinion/reflection article, and one of the stronger experimental papers you cited actually found AI assistance increased individual creativity while reducing diversity across outputs. Check my replies where I quoted several more rigorous studies / meta analysis.

    F) Calling someone a eugenicist does not fix the evidentiary gap; the defensible claim is that chatbots may worsen delusions or dependency in some users who are psychologically vulnerable to it and therefore need guardrails, not that ordinary use “breaks your brain” full stop.

    Less smelling your own farts and more reading the actual evidence and you might gain a clue






  • Gish gallop of shite.

    A) overblown, and that argues for cleaner power, better cooling, and more efficient models

    B) regulation failure

    C) incorrect, they have made discoveries that humans have been unable to. All human knowledge is built off previous knowledge.

    D) the enemy is both weak and strong. If they don’t produce anything good then the people who are losing their jobs can’t have either, right?

    E) small study based on one task which people are misrepresenting. The actual evidence shows it makes people smarter as they shift priorities.

    F) only for vulnerable people. Better safeguards are needed for the weak minded.

    G) argument against using people’s likeness not ai

    H) use an open source Chinese model

    I) market distortion problem, not a principled reason no one should use the technology any more than GPU shortages made all graphics work illegitimate.

    J) see (H)

    K) try one argument next time. Your best one, maybe people would be more open to wasting time.

    I’m not trusting what they say, I’m using the available evidence which indicates no wrongdoing for Clinton and a truck load for Trump so my original comment stands.

    There’s no evidence he did anything inappropriate with kids.

    Trump, however, has been accused by multiple Epstein victims.

    If Trump was able to successfully hide incriminating evidence he would’ve done so for himself.

    You wouldn’t need to it’d be plastered everywhere. You don’t think anyone else has looked? So yes it is evidence you do not have anything more than that.

    I never said with certainty he was cleared of any wrongdoing. Just that there was no evidence he knew or was involved.

    There’s also no evidence he went to the island, all they show is that Clinton flew on one of his foundations donors private 727 on several occasions between 2002 and 2003, primarily for Clinton Foundation humanitarian work in Africa, Europe, and Asia.

    And he was deposed and testified in front of congress a few weeks ago. Far more than can be said for any of the actual suspected pedophiles based on the released info.
