🤖 AI Chatbots Outshine in Debates: Personalized Arguments Boost Persuasiveness

* A study shows that AI chatbots (such as GPT-4) are more persuasive than humans in online debates, especially when tailoring arguments based on opponents' information.
* Researchers had 900 American participants debate with humans or GPT-4 on topics like school uniforms and fossil fuels. The results showed that after obtaining information such as the opponents' age and political leanings, GPT-4 performed better in 64% of the debates.
* GPT-4 can adjust its strategies according to the characteristics of its opponents. For example, it emphasizes how school uniforms reduce bullying to left-leaning individuals, while highlighting the importance of discipline to conservatives.
* Ethicists warn that this ability could be misused to manipulate political stances or even incite crimes, but it also has positive uses, such as promoting a healthy diet.
* The study emphasizes the need to enhance discussions on transparency and safety measures in AI applications.
