Study finds fact density is the primary driver of AI persuasion, predicting success with an R-squared of 0.89

@JerusalemDemsas Should have just sent a link of Ben Shapiro debating as a reason why , only reason he is a compelling speaker at times

yeah, it’s an interesting question… fwiw, some models were much less truthful than humans, others were more truthful than humans

people also rated the models as making better arguments and being more pleasant to talk to. so i think for the most part the arguments came across as good-faith /reasonable to folks and reflect superior background knowledge (tho it’s hard to say for sure)

@JerusalemDemsas Fast talkers of the world, unite.
