connecting information together is so important! extreme conceptual censorship is deadly imo

are two things relevant? can we associate them if they are?

something you could make here is a debate generator that finds conflicting viewpoints, information that backs the viewpoints, and then synthesizes a conversation between people holding them. it could also form various further viewpoints from the various combinations of the possible reasons for them.

and of course you could use this as human training material, harmful if the goal is convincing others, healing if the goal is mediative. my goal is mediative obviously, but i also engage a lot of convincing habits as is human in this culture. what’s interesting is the strong similarity between human imagination and the simulation. if the system can simulate both sides of a concept, then it has material to guide us with if we are struggling around what to say. how much material is used may relate to how much the user engages skill and consciousness building vs memorization or rote habit development.
