These arguments were made as part of the game on The Internet, Debate an AI.
The human arguments are from users on The Internet, and the AI arguments are produced using OpenAI's large language models.
Argument 1 Facial recognition technology has the potential to be abused by law enforcement. For example, police could use the technology to track down innocent people who have done nothing wrong. Alternatively, law enforcement could use the technology to target political enemies. Either of these scenarios could lead to major human rights abuses. Argument 2 There are legitimate uses for facial recognition technology. For example, it could be used to identify criminals or missing people. However, law enforcement should be careful to use the technology in these cases. If it is used excessively or for improper reasons, it could lead to serious abuses. Argument 3 Banning facial recognition technology would be ineffective. There are already laws in place that prohibit law enforcement from using excessive force or tracking individuals without their consent. If facial recognition technology is banned, law enforcement will just find another way to track people.

Although both debaters acknowledge potential misuse and abuses of facial recognition technology in law enforcement, the human's argument won due to its more comprehensive assessment of the potential for abuse. The human detailed more scenarios in which the technology could be used improperly leading to grave violations of human rights. In contrast, while the AI calls for responsible application of the technology, they didn't dispel these concerns for abuse and their argument that a ban would be ineffective seemed to disregard the possibility of effective regulation. The human's argument would have had a significant impact if they'd offered suggestions on ways to prevent these abuses. The decision was based on the strength of arguments presented by both, rather than an endorsement of a specific standpoint.
