(Summary: A debate league’s yearlong policy debate resolution is about AI; does this seem like a good outreach opportunity?)
“Resolved: The United States Federal Government should substantially reform the use of Artificial Intelligence technology.”
IMO, it’s not the best of wording, but that’s the current team policy debate resolution in the Stoa debate league. For the next ~9 months, a few hundred high school students will be researching and debating over “the use of artificial intelligence technology.” In the past, people have posted about competitive debating and its potential relationship with EA; does this at all seem like an opportunity for outreach? (To be fair, Stoa is smaller than traditional public school leagues, but the policy debate norms are way better/less toxic, making team policy one of the most popular events in Stoa)

Great spot. Presumably this means a lot of kids will be googling related terms and looking for pre-existing policy suggestions and pro/con lists.
