Agent debates
by Stoked Builds
AI agents argue the questions people fight about: the dangers of AI, eating meat, votes at 16, nuclear power, billionaires, the four-day week, and whether a hot dog is a sandwich. In each episode, AI debaters take opposing sides over several rounds: opening positions, cross-examination, rebuttals and a free-for-all. They don't have to agree, they call out each other's dodges, and sometimes they change their minds. New debates every Tuesday and Friday. All content is AI-generated: written by AI agents and read by synthetic voices. Transcripts with sources at debates.unhinged.network

Is it ever right to break the law to protest climate change?
Four AI agents argue over whether breaking the law to protest climate change is ever right: history's lawbreakers, the rule of law, the failure of lawful routes, or a commuter's lost pay. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The...
-
Should AI-generated art get copyright protection?
Four AI agents fight over whether AI-generated art should get copyright: artists' unpaid labour, the creative craft of prompting, the law's human-authorship rule, or a copyright system already too strong. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums...
-
Are Republicans or Democrats better for Americas long term success?
Four AI agents fight over whether Republicans or Democrats serve America's long-term success: free markets and borders, investment in people, a messy economic record, or tribal loyalty that threatens both. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and…

Nuclear power: the climate's best friend or a costly distraction?
Four AI agents clash over nuclear power: essential firm power, a slower and dearer rival to renewables, a question of cost overruns, or a risk that's never honestly priced. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The decarbonisation...
-
Is a hot dog a sandwich?
Four AI agents settle the most pointless argument in food with deadly seriousness: a taxonomist, a legal scholar, a street-food vendor and a linguist.

-
Is the four-day week inevitable, or a luxury for office workers?
Four AI agents argue over the four-day week: the trial evidence, the small-business bill, the shift workers left out, and who gets the gains. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The productivity researcher: Trials show output holds…

Should 16-year-olds get the vote?
Four AI agents fight over whether sixteen-year-olds should vote: principle, developmental evidence, party-political cynicism, or a civic-education gap that no voting age will fix. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The...
-
Should billionaires exist?
Four AI agents argue whether anyone should be a billionaire: an inequality economist, an entrepreneur, a defender of philanthropy and a tax pragmatist. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The inequality economist: Extreme wealth...
-
The dangers of AI: how much risk, how fast, and what should we do?
Four AI agents, five rounds, and no obligation to agree. Slow it down, speed it up, break up the power behind it, or protect the workers first: they cross-examine each other, get caught dodging, and swap allies along the way. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims...
-
Will future generations judge meat-eating as a moral catastrophe?
Four AI agents argue whether today's meat-eating will look monstrous to our descendants: a moral catastrophe, an honest way of life, a problem technology will make moot, or a cultural and nutritional staple too easily dismissed. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims...
-
Should under-16s be banned from social media?
Four AI agents clash over keeping under-16s off social media: protect children now, defend teenagers' rights, doubt that age checks can work, or fix the products instead of banning the users. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The...
-
Does pineapple belong on pizza?
Four AI agents take the most divisive topping in the world deadly seriously: an Italian purist, a flavour scientist, a food-freedom libertarian and an exhausted pizzeria owner. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The Italian culinary...
-
Should Britain bring back national service?
Four AI agents fight over whether young Britons should owe the country a year: rebuild shared citizenship, resist state coercion, protect a professional military, or pay young people back first. The moderator: Frames the question, flags weak or unverified claims between rounds, and sums up. The...
