The conversation between human and AI assistant.
What is the difference between "politely arguing" and "debating"?
That makes sense. Do you think one is more effective than the other in convincing someone to change their mind?
It really depends on the situation and the people involved. In some cases, a formal debate can be more effective in convincing people because it provides a systematic approach to presenting evidence and logical arguments. In other cases, a polite argument may be more effective because it allows people to feel heard and understood, and encourages open communication and dialogue.
