One of the more contentious (if not the only one since 2018) finals . The result was originally a 6-5 split in favor of Canada before ultimately falling to USA’s favor under a 7-4 split.

What an exceptional debate! Both teams displayed remarkable skills. My vote is in favor of Canada.

Loved watching it in person

Ask one poi toward prop: What if throughout the calculations of the AI that the quickest way to reduce the global sufferings is to let those poor die out? How would prop dealt with that?

The Canadian team could have talked abt that AI is created and programmed by (humans) and how that contradicts the opponents' view, as the AI still won't treat everyone equally since it gets its information from the network, which it obviously is very subjective.

Hey , do you have any recommended teachers for WSDA debate competitions?

This debate was so narrow because Prop failed to ever show us how AI does anything in the first place. Does it give them suggestions? Does it give them orders? If it gives them orders, how does it enforce them? This debate was a mess, man.

What was the resolution

Canada ate that don't even

I am watching this for my homework, but I don’t even know what WSDC means 😂😂

just wanna say, 3rd opp flopped
