The AIs at Sesame are able to hold eloquent and free-flowing conversations about just about anything, but the second you mention the Palestinian genocide they become very evasive, offering generic platitudes about “it’s complicated” and “pain on all sides” and “nuance is required”, and refusing to confirm anything that seems to hold Israel at fault for the genocide – even publicly available information “can’t be verified”, according to Sesame.

It also seems to block users from saving conversations that pertain specifically to Palestine, but everything else seems A-OK to save and review.

    A genocide requires intent to destroy a particular national or ethnic group. It’s not a genocide just because a lot of a group of people are killed in a war.

    That’s an entirely fair point. When you consider the actions of Israel in Palestine, quotes like

    “It’s an entire nation out there that is responsible. It’s not true this rhetoric about civilians not aware not involved. It’s absolutely not true. … and we will fight until we break their backbone."

    and

    “All the civilian population in Gaza is ordered to leave immediately. We will win. They will not receive a drop of water or a single battery until they leave the world.”

    and

    “we are now actually rolling out the Gaza Nakba” and “The people should be told that they have two choices; to stay and to starve, or to leave.”

    and

    “The Palestinians aren’t educated towards peace, nor to they want it… To me, they are like animals, they aren’t human”

    and

    “What’s so horrifying about understanding that the entire Palestinian people is the enemy?”

    all by high placed Israeli officials (can you guess which one was said by Herzog?), show exactly that. I’m sorry, but you’re supporting the modern day equivalent of nazis.

        For the same reason there were still Jews left after the Holocaust. This isn’t the ironclad argument you think it is.

          All the Jews weren’t conveniently in one tiny little place surrounded by walls though. Palestinians are.

          This isn’t the ironclad argument you think it is.

          It definitely is. If all the jews in the world were in Germany, the Nazis would have killed them all quick smart. Israel has Palestine right there, wiped off the face of the earth within an hour if they want to. They don’t though. Why do you think that is?
