There is a human tendency to grant our interlocutors empathy by default. This can be weaponized by bad-faith actors trying to move the overton window.
Someone says "AI can do X" and it's uncomfortable to say "no, I already know it can't" or even "prove it". You hear it over and over again from a hundred "journalists" acting as stenographers for big tech, and you feel like you have to grant that position grace.
You don't have to fall for it *AND* you don't have to be mean about it.
